From: Michal Januszewski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Currently, if a perfect match in terms of resolution is not found,
fb_find_mode() only looks for a best-fit mode among modes with a
higher resolution than the one requested.  Thus, if the user
requests a resolution higher than the largest supported one, they
are dropped to the default mode (usually a low resolution one).

Change this behaviour so that the true closest match in terms
of the city-block metric is returned.
