(II) intel(0): Using fuzzy aspect match for initial modes

It looks like it's not finding an exact match between your video card's resolution/refresh rates, and what your monitor can do, so it's doing a fuzzy match, which results in a resolution (2048x1536) that's out of range for the monitor. Silly thing.

For now, I think you can get around this by ssh'ing into the box and using xrandr to temporarily set a different resolution (e.g. xrandr --output VGA --mode 1024x768). That should enable you to boot up. Then use the Screen Resolution tool to select a resolution to use persistently.

If you can also attach the output of `get-edid | parse-edid` with this monitor attached, I can forward this bug upstream so we can hopefully get a permanent fix.
