Video modes
KVM-9000 recognizes a limited number of common video modes. When running X-Window on the
host system, please don’t use any custom mode lines with special video modes. If done so, KVM-9000
may not be able to detect these. You are on the safe side with all standard VESA video modes. Please
refer to Appendix C for a list of all known modes.
