For my display (Samsung, 800x560 resolution, Multisync) and Orchid ProDesigner
card (512K on-board) I have:

	ET3000 864 606 25 28 35 45 "800x560"

	"800x560" 35 800 904 1048 1144  560 570 574 589

I'd assume for your display you'd need to pick up the one from Xconfig:

	ET3000 864 606  25 28 35 45 "640x480"

	"640x480" 25 640 672 768 800   480 490 492 525

and probably, I'd change 492 to 494 in the last line. The only concern I'd
have would be your monitor: I could experiment freely (more or less :-) with
my multisync, but you want to be careful and not to burn your VGA!

Well, anyway according to the docs (which I suggest you to check out yourself -
don't tale my word!) the entry I copied should be OK for most 640x480 displays.

And from me!! It's great! Now I see what X11 should look like!
