Ok, so the bug is that you don't see the resulting resolution
immediately after OKing the new VDI resolution + Atari reset,
it comes into effect only after restarting Hatari.

If you were using OSX GUI to configure Hatari, could you try
using SDL GUI and see whether you get the corrected resolution
right away with it?

-> If yes, OSX GUI doesn't properly propagate the configuration
   change information, and needs to be fixed.

The 640x592 resolution is separate issue from your bug.

Calculation was based on observations on here:
http://www.atari-forum.com/viewtopic.php?f=51&t=33129&start=125

But as you can see from the latest comment, it wasn't quite
correct.  There's some funky problem with VDI on TOS v2 or earlier
*when* having >= 4MB of RAM.

First step in fixing that problem is somebody going back enough
in Hatari versions to check whether the crash problem is a regression,
or something that has never worked.

If crash was a regression, it needs to be bisected to find out
what caused it.  If it's not, somebody needs to debug what causes
these crashes with older TOS versions, so that it can be worked
around.

After that is done, I can re-test whether above listed calculation
can be removed completely.
