incorrect refresh rate for VGA modes 0+/1+/2+/3+

modes. The CH-7021 encoder does not support a border in the timings, so the
640x480 VESA modes were not being programmed correctly in this regard. Solution: To fix VGA mode problem we need to use the IBM VGA 70Hz

timing table with the one that is no display boarder. |
