    Monitor is HP P1130 == Dell P1130 == Sony G520
    To be more precise, additional information about this monitor is:
    # Per Dell website Specs for P1130
    hsync range 0: 30.00 - 130.00
    vsync range 0: 48.00 - 170.00

    Who knows how to calculate Modeline for 1600x1200 @ 100Hz on this monitor?

    Thanks in advance.
