I tried, but XFree refuses to use it
(II) I810(0): Not using mode "1152x864" (no mode of this name)
In RH9 I was able to use all the resolutions defined in
redhat-config-xfree86 from 640x480 up to 1280x1024 without messing the
XF86Config file. In Fedora i am not able to use 1152x864 neither
1280x960.
