Well, I don't like the fbdev magially picking modes like this,
those modes may just not be supported by the display. At least,
fbset allows me to setup the proper timings for 'special'
displays like iMac fixed hoziontal frequency for example.

Ultimately, we really need a "monitor" driver on top of the
fbdev that does DDC/EDID when the low level fbdev can provide
an i2c bus or EDID information via some different way and
that can be tweaked to deal with special monitors when we
know we are using these.
