This produces exactly the same results as running without any modes
specified: highest resolution that the monitor can handle at 60 Hz (even
if it exceeds the maximum dot clock supported by the monitor).
Therefore, my vote is "no" unless someone invents some heuristics for
avoiding that effect for CRT monitors.
The exception is the buggy "savage" driver which cannot read EDID from
the monitor and defaults to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Upgrading to the latest beta
Xorg solves the "savage" problem.
