OK, tried that, but the change was ignored. The only difference I see in
the new xorg.conf is that there are no mode lines in the modes section.
Ben Kevan asked about nvidia-settings, but that offers no options to
auto-detection.

I obtained the mode lines from the set-up under the integrated graphics,
but the numbers are so different I don't hold much hope of being able to
use them. I will probably just use 800x600 until I am ready for a newer
monitor.
