Therefore, my vote is "no" unless someone invents some heuristics for

Are you sure that running Xorg without any modes will give the highest

My video card can handle upto 2048x1536 (I think, it's a Radeon 9200),
but the (old) CRT monitor is limited to 1280x1024. Xorg chooses

I
have a few machines with high-end graphics cards, but two of my monitors
can't do above 1024x768. When using the livecd, running Xorg without any
modes always gives me a 'Input not supported' error because Xorg is trying
to output in a higher resolution.
Which video card and monitors? (a driver problem is suspected)
