Yes, this come from a conceptual bug ; I shouldn't have take the
easy way and ported the old pm3fb. The old one used an integrated
database of mode that didn't require all the data required
by modedb. Of course I forgot to check that, and now,
if you put a 'mode:' option, hell break loose. <sigh>

I'll fix that ASAP ; in the meantime, you might want to try
without any 'mode:' option, that _should_ bypass the bug
and use 640x480@60...

Thanks for the report,
