New description:

 I'm running an Athlon64 2800+ in an MSI K8MM-V motherboard
 (based on the K8M800 chipset) with PC2100 memory...

 But I was getting the messages about the available bandwidth being
 exceeded by the dotclock of the modeline I was trying to use.

 This seemed a little too low, so I wrote the following tweak to allow
 someone to override the static table value.

 It's done as:

         Option "Overclocked" "true"

 in the Device section.  I'm attaching diffs...  Can we get these committed
 into the tree?  I'm running FC5, and applied these diffs to:

 xorg-x11-drv-via-0.1.33.2-2

 But I've run it on FC3 with 6.9 as well.
