You are correct.  I entered the DacSpeed as an option, so it was
ignored.  The standard maximum DacSpeed (Pixel Clock) is 56.125 MHz and
the probed memory clock value is 40.090 MHz

The options below will work to produce 16bpp@1024x768 (with the
following specifications)

(--) CHIPS(0): Virtual size is 1024x768 (pitch 1024)
(**) CHIPS(0): Default mode "1024x768": 65.0 MHz, 48.4 kHz, 60.0 Hz
(**) CHIPS(0): Default mode "800x600": 56.3 MHz, 53.7 kHz, 85.1 Hz
(==) CHIPS(0): DPI set to (75, 75)

GetModeLine - scrn: 0 clock: 65000
GetModeLine - hdsp: 1024 hbeg: 1048 hend: 1184 httl: 1344
              vdsp: 768 vbeg: 771 vend: 777 vttl: 806 flags: 10


***OPTIONS***

    DacSpeed 65.0   
#   Option "SetMClk" "46.44 MHz" (that is, this option is commented
out). 

or

#   DacSpeed 65.0   (that is, this option is commented out)
    Option "SetMClk" "46.44 MHz" . 

or most likely some balance between the two.  I am guessing changing the
pixel clock is the less risky?

Many thanks,

Tom
