I have put in the maximum values (found them from the manual).
Still no luck.

Running potato. So, downloaded the sources and compiled them.
Installed them. Configuration is much easier. But still I do not get
the 1152x864 screen.
A portion of my new XF86Config-4:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "SAM:3610"
HorizSync 31.5-60
VertRefresh 50-100
Option "DPMS"
EndSection
The modeline portion of my earlier config that would work:
# 640x480 @ 100 Hz, 53.01 kHz hsync
Modeline "640x480" 45.8 640 672 768 864 480 488 494 530 -HSync
-VSync
# 800x600 @ 85 Hz, 55.84 kHz hsync
Modeline "800x600" 60.75 800 864 928 1088 600 616 621 657 -HSync
-VSync
# 1024x768 @ 70 Hz, 56.5 kHz hsync
Modeline "1024x768" 75 1024 1048 1184 1328 768 771 777 806 -hsync
-vsync
# 1152x864 @ 60 Hz, 53.5 kHz hsync
Modeline "1152x864" 89.9 1152 1216 1472 1680 864 868 876 892 -HSync
-VSync

As the frequencies are within the specified range, I feel that I
should get the resolutions. But I do not. Is there something that we
are missing?
Thanks,
