Convert i810fb, nvidiafb and savagefb to use the fb_find_best_display helper when searching for the initial video mode.
From my experience, the 1st detailed timing is only good for flat panels... A lot of CRTs put junk in there. In fact, I suspect for CRT, the only sane thing is to default to 1024x768 if it fits the timings or 640x480 if not =P and let the user/distro deal with changing to something else.
