My notebook's (HP zd7020) native resolution is 1440x900.  XFree86 does
not have a default setting for this resolution.  I need some help
creating a 1440x900 modeline definition.


Situation:

1440x900 is the native resolution of the display on my laptop.  In
Windows it runs at 60Hz.  In Fedora, I have a modeline that I created
and am using; however, periodically at a seemingly random interval the
screen will flicker.  It appears that my timings are a bit off.  I have
been unable to determine which timings need adjustment.


Details:

- Current modeline that I am using:

Modeline "1440x900" 96.0 1440 1448 1632 1780 900 903 906 914

- Video card is a nVIDIA GeForce4 (FX) 448/5600 Go w/64MB memory

- Display is a 17" notebook LCD screen

- XF86Config relevant monitor section entries:

DisplaySize 367 230
HorizSync   29.0 - 55.0
VertRefresh  0.0 - 60.0

- nVIDIA XFree86 driver 1.0-4496

- /var/log/XFree86.0.log relevant lines:

Display device DFP-0: maximum pixel clock at 32bpp: 400 MHz

- Notebook is a HP zd7000 series (zd7020)

- I used xvidtune to help create the modeline I am using now


Any help producing a more accurate modeline would be appreciated.
