Alright, I just fired this up to give it a shot.  It sync'd up just
fine on my monitor, but I did notice that the monitor is reporting
56Hz for the refresh rate.  If it's supposed to be hitting 60 for your
10.4" display, then that could be your issue with it only getting 790
pixels.  If the pixel clock was not at the right rate, I could see
this happening.
