Wow, that was fast. In "autodetection" mode, my available modes suddenly went up to 34 on my main laptop. Some of these are really weird (like 360x200 or 640x272) - not all of them work. But, it's great to have the options! Glad you got autodetection working in Allegro.

Incidently, I'm testing only on real bare metal DOS machines. This should be the acid test. Emulators and simulators should be secondary. If they work, all the better...
