Subject: How to get 1600x1200-100Hz on FC2 with Radeon 7000.

I just installed "Fedora Core 2 release" and the highest
resolution/refresh rate I can get is 1600x1200-85Hz. I run Windows XP on
the same machine and I get 1600x1200-100Hz with the same Radeon 7000 and
monitor HP P1130 without problems. Note: This mode I get on windows with
  checkbox checked for displaying only monitor supported refresh rates.
So, the clear conclusion is that this mode is fine with my hardware and
officially supported.

I tried to find XF86Config, but this file is not anywhere in FC2!?
In general now, I am puzzled how Xconfiguration is supposed to be done
now with FC2!? I tried to figure out how somebody is supposed to
configure additional mode video mode with specific refresh rate.

Can somebody help me on how to get 1600x1200-100Hz on FC2 with Radeon
7000 on my monitor HP P1130.
