Please clarify how SLE10's X handles this condition.
I'll double check this.
I was proven wrong and apologize. A lot of things changed in fbdevhw.c between
SLES10 (X.Org 6.9) and openSUSE 10.3 (xorg-server 1.3.0.0). Code was
reorganized, new checks have been added (among these is fbdev_modes_equal).

fbdevhw: Consolidate modeset ioctl calling, report failure if it modifies mode.
The fbdev API allows the driver to 'accept' modes it doesn't really support by
modifying it to the nearest supported mode. Without this check, e.g. vesafb
would appear to accept all modes, even though it actually can't set any modes
other than the bootup mode at all.
