Mode setting in X is like black magic to me, but I think if you give
it an explicit Modeline in the Monitor section, it will use that
without doing the rest. You can find the specific mode setting by
reading one of the old logs.
Section "Monitor"
#DisplaySize 380 300 # mm
Identifier "ViewSonic"
VendorName "VSC"
ModelName "VX924"
### Comment all HorizSync and VertSync values to use DDC:
HorizSync 30.0 - 82.0
VertRefresh 50.0 - 85.0
Option "DPMS"
ModeLine "dn1280x1024" 108.00 1280 1328 1440 1688 1024
1025 1028 1066 +hsync +vsync
