 during power up at 1024x600 otherwise the display will be initialized at a resolution
 of 800x480.

+
+Supported resolutions are:
+ * 640x480 with color depth 1, 2, 4 or 8 bits per pixel
+ * 320x240 with color depth 8 or 16 bits per pixel
+
+The default value, if unspecified, is 320x240 with 16 bits per pixel.
+
+If height is unspecified, it is set from the width. For example, a width of 640
+implies a height of 480.
