I thought there was a big push to use SDL's video mode querying rather than
the fixed set of resolutions built into Q3. I'd imagine that the SDL/Solaris
support is quite low and thus can only report a single available video mode
for sure: the one it is using currently. I have no idea what the problem
might be with windowed mouse support - it works fine on IRIX which probably
has <= level of support as Solaris.
