Well it seems to me that the main issue of contention here is the
detected settings being incorrect for given hardware. I am wondering
how usplash defines things like vertical and horizontal refresh rates
and if they are modifiable. Perhaps something along the lines of X's
modelines?

I'm kinda of stabbing in the dark here but it seems that some people
have gotten it working at certain resolutions but it doesn't work at
others that it seemingly should for their hardware. IE more than few
have gotten this working at 800x600 yet I doubt that the 1024x768 that
it was originally configured to run at was beyond the bounds of their
displays capabilities.
