Assuming that the monitor will talk to you, you should be able to get those by looking at the DDC info in the logfile, from X -configure, or by running /usr/sbin/ddcprobe. If the monitor isn't being friendly, here is the VESA GTF standard compliant mode that "gtf 1680 1050 60" reports: # 1680x1050 @ 60.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 65.22 kHz; pclk: 147.14 MHz Modeline "1680x1050_60.00" 147.14 1680 1784 1968 2256 1050 1051 1054 1087 -HSync +Vsync (This uses default flyback ratios: digital screens can get away with smaller "porches", so this may not match what your monitor reports via DDC). -- Dr. Andrew C.
