I just upgraded to a Samsung 245B LCD which is good
for 1920x1200@60Hz. The Sax2 generic LCD list does
not provide such an entry and the monitor is not in
the named models list. As it is, sax2 will not give
me the above native/max resolution.

I used GTF to generate modelines and this works but
only up to 48Hz. I don't see how it could be harmful. (?)

According to a very friendly (!!!) but unofficial
phonecall (from a source officially providing no
product support under linux) this should not be a
problem. But I'd feel a lot better if someone could
clarify/confirm/explain.
