This is likely to do with your monitor configuration.

X gets told the capabilities of your monitor something like this

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
        ModelName    "0"
        HorizSync    1.5 - 250.0
        VertRefresh  10.0 - 150.0
        Option      "dpms"
        Option      "noddc"
EndSection

These are values I faked up in order to stop modes being disallowed based on 
X's idea of the monitor capabilities.

Bust out vi on /etc/X11/XF86Config again and amend the HorizSync and 
VertRefresh guys to look like mine, that should make a difference if we are 
on the right track.
