Modeline for Infocus 4805?

I have my Myth 0.19 box running on Suse 10.1, using a couple of PCHDTV tuner cards and outputting using an nVidia 5200 card via DVI.

The native rez of the projector I have (an InFocus 4805) is 854x480. I'm currently sending it 800x600 because I can't figure out the modeline I should be using.

Anyone here figured this out yet? I'd like to send native resolution to the PJ.

I'm amazed I found this on google right away by simply typing '854x480 modeline' into the search box. (I'm not giving you grief, I'm truly surprised)

854x480 Modeline that works with Infocus 4805 Projector (exact DLP resolution)

Modeline "854x480" 37.293 854 940 988 1104 480 508 509 563 +hsync +vsync

I don't have enough posts yet to enter links but search for '854x480 modeline' in google and click the first link (should be a KnoppMythWiki entry). I am patiently waiting for my 4805 to arrive from woot so I'm also interested in this modeline.

That is super sweet. Thanks so much! I googled that a while back (months) and didn't get anything. I'll give it a shot!

I tried this modeline over RGB, but the projector switched to 640x480... ( xvidtune verifies that the vid card is putting out 854x480 ).

I just ordered an M1 to DVI adapter to try...

Have you guys verified this to work over RGB? My projector is old and I've had problems with it.. so it wouldn't surprise me if it was my 4805 malfunctioning...

My Ubuntu box says it's outputting 854x480...but the PJ does. I'm using a VGA to MD1 cable so that might be the problem.
