Well perhaps the mode you want is the one called 640x480-etNlbFTGNQQ at public.gmane.org

Vertical sync of 66-67 hz and horizontal of 34-36khz.

Perhaps setting your 'Modes' to "640x480-etNlbFTGNQQ at public.gmane.org" will make it work.  I
think most video cards have that as a default mode in XFree86.

As long as you tell it the range for vertical and horizontal just big
enough that it will catch the mode you are asking for, it should work.
