Hmm. No idea. I assume the A1200 has Fast RAM, so I don't see much
difference between running iteconfig during the rc.local or on the shell.

Perhaps the Chip RAM is more fragmented during rc.local-execution, than
later on the shell? I guess that the ENOMEN comes from grf_alloc_view(), so
this would need some debugging.

Do smaller sizes, like 640x400, work in rc.local?
