What kind of glitches? And you did mean XF86_... right? (vs MF86_...)

As I mentioned, XF86_SVGA server works fine, it is just the XF86_Mach64
server with which I get vertical banding.

I got the low res stuff working: simple enough, I just had to say that my
screen can handle larger HorizSync and VertRefresh ranges...

I tried your modeline, made no difference. I think it has to do with the
server and my display card not understanding each other... I'll just stick
to XF86_SVGA - now that I have the low-res modelines working, I'm happier.
