Kee-rect. You'll need to click the "Modeline" button (I think that's
the label) in 'xvidtune' to show you the Modeline that fits the
particular screen tweakiness that you've made with xvidtune, then add
that line to your XF86Config file. Unfortunately, it's not the easiest
thing to do, but I think you're one of those 2% of the people for whom X
doesn't just automatically detect the "correct" proper scanrate and
settings for your monitor for its ideal display mode.
