That was actually an oversight on my side and not intended. Does a RGB fallback make sense?

Now that I think of it get to 2 scenarios:

- The screen is really 420_only, which causes a silent fail and a black screen I guess? Where before at least a log message was written.

- The screen falsely reports as 420_only and using RGB regardless makes it magically work

I think at least warning should be printed to the logs. Something along the lines of: "Display reports as 420 only, but port does not support 420, try forcing RGB, but this is likely to fail."
