Oopss..yes, absolutely. In my attempts to get all the correct resolution 
acronyms right I missed the most relevant part, the correct resolution itself. 
Yes, my SNAP display settings today are set to do 1920x1200.

OK, so I'm thinking the question therefore is more about the following: if 
'gamode add' allows me to add this resolution to the list, and if I can get all 
the timings/settings synced up between the SNAP and the LCD itself, is there 
anything int he SNAP drivers themselves that may prevent me from successfully 
running at that resolution?

So when you say the odds are 'low'...what sort of reservations do you have?

I'm thinking this would be very experimental.

Thanks!
