Display limited to 800x600 [SOLVED]

Replacing the dtb file did not work. replacing initrd.img file alone breaks the system. The problem was in the 0.5 kernel, and the question was if was possible to replace by the 0.6 kernel without breaking everything. I expected it would, but this didn't and the system is still running well.

When you replace the kernel (or initrd.img) you might have to do "update-initramfs -u", I'm not sure how that works. I didn't backtrack on anything, just picked a mode with drm_kms_helper. Did it before I found the PDF on how to do it, I think I got it from somebody on IRC.
