You may have to play around with the refresh rate.  Out of curiosity, 
what monitor do you have attached to it?  Also I'm not 100% positive i 
got the syntax right, but I'm sure you can find reference to it in the 
list archives at lists.linuxppc.org (linuxppc-user or -dev), or 
lists.yellowdoglinux.com (YDL mailing lists) if you search them, but if 
things are still garbled you probably just don't have the proper 
refresh rate (and/or my bad syntax to blame).
