If there is no such mode listed in the default modes, why
not just roll your own. E.g.
gtf 1280 800 75
returns:

Read carefully!
If you define a mode called "1280x800_75.00" in your modes
section, you must put a mode called "1280x800_75.00" in the
other sections too - XFree86 references modes only by matching
the strings in this case.
So, either change the mode line to contain just "1280x800" at

Hi,
I've been running 4.3.99.4 on top of SuSE 8.2 for a while
with no problems, on an r250If, with xinerama for dual head.
Now I've installed 4.3.99.7 over the top of 4.3.99.4 (which
itself was installed over the top of the original SuSE
4.3.0), and things have gone wrong ... I can't now use
