xserver trouble



hello!

i'd like you to fix one ugly trouble in xserver. it's trouble, i know.
so, trouble is:
for example, in xorg.conf we have
...
Section "Screen"
	...
	DefaultDepth	24
	...
	SubSection "Display"
		Depth		24
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
	EndSubSection
EndSection
...
But monitor can support also "1600x1200" resolution. and we need to add it.
so, edit file like this:
...
	SubSection "Display"
		Depth		24
Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
	EndSubSection
...
and reboot. X server resolution changed auotmatically to "1600x1200". But we don't need to change resolution immediately.
we want only support it, not change.

i think, trouble in getting resolution from list...
server gets only number in list, but it must seek to number of dots...
and only if it can not find number of dots in setted resolution, it must change resoultion to any other, but closer to setted before...

sorry for my dirty english, it's very hard for me...
thanks for reading this. i hope, it helps you to make Debian linux better.
