Setting the right monitor size

#Many people have trouble configuring their monitors to the right
#size after the installation. The file /lib/vgadb contains
#definitions for the most common display sizes and some peculiar
#hardware that Bell Labs or other 9fans have used. Once you've found
#the desirable size, set monitor= to that name in plan9.ini(8). If
#you can't find an appropriate monitor entry, you can add your own
#using the instructions in [Adding a monitor to vgadb]. If your
#plan9.ini file isn't located in /n/9fat/plan9.ini, type
#
#! 	9fat: 
#
#For example, this entry is being typed on a T30 laptop with
#1400x1050 display. The plan9.ini on this machine has the following
#entry:
#
#! 	monitor=t23
#
#You can also change the resolution afterwards with aux/vga. Have a
#look at vga(8) for all details. In short:
#
#! 	aux/vga -m vesa -l 1280x1024x16
#
#or
#
#! 	aux/vga -m vga -l
#
#to reset the display to a known state.
#
