1280*720@60Hz, 1280*1024@60Hz
- Normally when the primary mode 1280*1024@60Hz is well adjusted and
compliant with the specification, the secondary display modes will also be
compliant with the spec. But we still have to check with the general test pattern to
make sure every secondary is compliant with the specification.
