Sorry, what I actually meant to say was that 1280 x 1024 x 16M x 60Hz
was the highest available display resolution on 0.8.10/5.20, whereas
0.8.10/5.17 will go up to 1824 x 1026 x 16M x 60Hz on my system.

Be that as it may, amending the pixel rates in the MDF file (from a
max. of 144000 down to 108000 here) has made resolutions above 1280 x
1024 x 16M both visible in the Configuration-Screen options box and
useable.
