I got this from a pdf on the monitor I own:

Vertical refresh rate : 60-85 Hz 
Horizontal Scan rate: 60- 80 KHz (Kilo Hetrz). 
Default set to 72Khz                    <<--- this is what you just said.
Horizontal scan rate is adjusted by H.Freq (Hold) as mentioned above. 
Maximum Resolution: 1600x1200 
Monitor Adjusted for: 1024x768 Tube: Sony Trinitron

d-1962b.rom    9.02a      72 khz, 85 hz  Sun/Sony GDM-1962b, GDM-1662b

This is annoying, information I find on the web often contradicts. Even basic 
things like refresh rates. 

The pdf gives *ranges* for a fixed freq monitor??

And posts on mailing lists apparently contradict too :-)

If I ever find out how to get the monitor to work I'l certainly do a 
follow-up here and in debian-sparc...

See the note above: the cheapos should do that no?
