 	Actually, they're more properly fixed by adjusting the monitor/TV 
so it doesn't overscan.  Twiddling modelines is band-aiding a broken 
situation.  Horiz direction easy to adjust.  Vert direction abuses the 
standard (e.g. 480 lines scaled to 465 lines instead of 480 properly 
displayed on the monitor).
