Hi,
I have no experience with stuff You're trying to do, just let me give
some generic tips.
1. Are You sure, You are running Xorg with xorg.conf.new file?
'Cause by default it uses /etc/X11/xorg.conf
So, maybe You should rename the file...
2. You've got there sth like:
> HorizSync 31.0 - 60.0
> HorizSync 60.0 - 75.0
> VerRefresh 56.2 - 75.0
Maybe I'm wrong, but I think You don't have to provide two
times HorizSync.
3. You don't have any resolutions specified in conf file.
For example:
##
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 16
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
##
4. You can approximate the desired V and H frequencies.
Suppose You want to work with resolution 1024x768 and with refresh 75kHz
(let's assume Your device can handle this):
So,
VertRefresh should be sth like 50-90
HorizSync is VertRefresh*(number_of_lines),
75Hz*768=57.6kHz
