So in order to help clear up some confusion regarding the LCD monitors
and their support under Linux, I did a little testing.

Monitor Color Status
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Apple 15" LCD Dark Blue, VGA connector Supported
Apple 15" LCD Blueberry/Ice, VGA Supported
Apple 15" LCD Graphite, DVI connector Supported; "novideo" flag
Apple 22" LCD Graphite, DVI connector Supported; "novideo" flag

The 22" LCD took some playing with to get it to work, I had to boot to
runlevel 3, re-run Xconfigurator, and then it worked. Milage may vary.
