I want to connect an arcade machine monitor to my linux-pc (to run mame on it, obviously).

My problem is now that although I can generate proper modelines with the mode line generators that are around on the net, xfree doesn't accept them because seemingly all graphics boards I tried have a dot clock range starting at 12MHz; the dot clocks for the resultions acceptable for the arcade monitor (which has a fixed horizontal frequency of 15625Hz and a vertical frequency range of 45-65Hz - PAL alike) are between 5 and 7 MHz.

So my question is: Is the 12MHz a lower limit for xfree or is it really the graphics boards that have that limit, and if so, are there graphics cards around which are capable of lower pixel clocks?
A friend of mine did this once. I seem to recall that he had to use the TV-out port on the card. I'll have to ask him, though.
