Why doesn't xrandr list legacy modes by default?

Hi all,

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this question, so if it's not
then feel free to send me elsewhere :)

I'm running some recent git open source ATI drivers on an R700, they work
great. The other day I picked up an old game that runs under Wine, but
requires a 320x200 resolution. I managed to get it running fullscreen by
adding the mode via xrandr, but I was wondering why xrandr doesn't show this
resolution as an option by default? xrandr itself says that the minimum
supported is 320x200, so why is it not listed as a supported mode?

I've just tried the same game on an nvidia based PC using the proprietary
drivers and it works fine there with no fiddling.

Is this a bug that needs reporting?

Luke.
