Just in case you're interested, I got my modeline from John P. Poet
(he's using an HL-R6168W with first an MX-440 and then a GF5200) and it
works great on my HL-R6768W (with a MX-440). He got his from "Spear"
(don't remember his full name) and modified it (with the help of a
modeline calculator at
http://www.tkk.fi/Misc/Electronics/faq/vga2rgb/calc.html ) to improve
the picture. I tried to show the versions and the changes below:
# From Spear
# ModeLine "1920x1080" 137.56 1920 1960 2016 2064 1080 1082 1088 1111
-VSync
# From EDID
# Modeline "1920x1080" 138.5 1920 1968 2000 2080 1080 1083 1088
1111 +hsync -vsync
# Remove "Noise"
# Modeline "1920x1080" 138.50 1920 1968 2004 2096 1080 1083 1088 1103
+hsync -vsync
# Move left
# Modeline "1920x1080" 138.50 1920 1976 2012 2096 1080 1083 1088 1103
+hsync -vsync
# Move down
Modeline "1920x1080" 140.09 1920 1980 2016 2096 1080 1082 1087
1115 +HSync -VSync
The uncommented one is the one I'm using.
And, I'm using "HorizSync 30-67" and "VertRefresh 56-75" based on
values from my "Owner's Instructions" (which is the same guide for
HL-R5668W, HL-R6168W, and HL-R6768W).
Oh, and you should probably add:
# For 1920x1080 at 100dpi (16:9)
DisplaySize 487 274
for use with Myth.
