This is a LiveCD specific bug resulting from a patch that makes any attempt to exceed the DDC-probed maximum dot clock an error. In your case, the monitor reports its limit as 0 MHz. It is useless to search Xorg wiki for a solution for this LiveCD-specific problem.

This bug will not be fixed until I get a working Internet connection at my primary job location (see http://archives.linuxfromscratch.org/mail-archives/lfs-dev/2006-June/057577.html and http://archives.linuxfromscratch.org/mail-archives/livecd/2006-September/004008.html, the promises are "this will happen in a month or so") or until someone pays me a sum of money that is enough to download all packages from home and upload the resulting CD (that's approximately $100).

You can work around the problem on your computer by building the LFS LiveCD 6.2-3 from SVN (be sure to use that exact tag) and editing packages/Xorg-modular/Makefile. Comment out line 192, which says "patch -Np1 -i ../$(PATCH1)".

This will not be the official fix, because this reopens many other bug reports.
