Since ModeLine magic was more common with older hardware and therefore
XFree86 / X11 et al, you might get more results *not* searching for Xorg.
Do you have enough info for this?

I wouldn't imagine you can destroy an LCD monitor with incorrect
timings, especially if you use the DVI, but I wouldn't take my word for
it. But if you feel lucky, maybe just play around with the settings you
don't have data for and see what happens...
