Comment:

 The workaround fully helped for hp neoware ca22 (1106:3344, sub-id the
 same so likely omitted) running rev 595:
 {{{
 (--) PCI:*(0 at 1:0:0) VIA Technologies, Inc. UniChrome Pro IGP rev 1, Mem @
 0xf4000000/0, 0xfb000000/0, BIOS @ 0x????????/65536
 [...]
 (--) CHROME(0): Chipset: P4M800Pro/VN800/CN700
 (--) CHROME(0): Chipset revision: 0
 (--) CHROME(0): Probed amount of VideoRAM = 16384 kB
 [...]
 (--) CHROME(0): Detected VIA VT3344 (VM800) - EPIA EN.
 }}}
 that is, 17" TFT attached via DVI was set to 1280x1024; xorg.conf and
 resulting Xorg.log available here:
  * https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/attachment.cgi?id=2997
  * https://bugzilla.altlinux.org/attachment.cgi?id=2998

 Found no BIOS updates for this "thin" client; when connected via VGA,
 works OK.

 PS: setting type to "defect" as this issue bars the ability to use DVI-
 connected monitor without quirks or other problems.
