Banana Pi: Resolution Problems

Pi attempts to auto-detect resolution, but not all monitors push this data. If they don't, you'll end up with a weird resolution and no option to change. Googling refers you to xrandr, etc, but I didn't find this helpful. Instead:

Per this thread:
http://forum.lemaker.org/thread-1577-1-1.html

Disable EDID (auto detection. Be aware this disables autodetection (duh)):
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/
pico /mnt/uEnv.txt

Look for:
disp.screen0_output_mode=EDID:1280x1024p60

Remove "EDID," optionally specify the resolution you want
