Sorry, I'm not sure I understand you correctly here, but I already
have ranges for HorizSync and VertRefresh. Do you mean ranges rather
than fixed values in the modeline themself? If so, how would I go
about creating those? (The modelines I use for 3.3.6 are
recommendations from te Card-Manufacturer and they work fine. Their
support didn't knw what to do about the problems with 4.x though).
