I think I remember this thread coming up before. I really doubt
that you will find anything from within the X config that will allow you
to do that. Modelines are linear. Unless the specific video card driver
has a special mode for it (non that I'm aware of do), you're screwed.
That should probably be done at the application (i.e. mythtv)
level. I don't think anyone has done it yet.
