I tried Modes "current" and it still didn't work. Fortunately I found Ryan Gordon's XF86Config-4 file, which had mode lines he had found to work with the iMac. Once I had manually set the mode lines, everything worked beautifully. I didn't even know you still could set the mode lines manually in XF86 4, but I guess I was wrong.
