Hi,
Thanks for the response!
I am able to create an XF86Config-4 file using debconf. It's tailored

Edit your XF86config-4 file, look for lines like these (see below). Insert the
correct frequency settings for your monitor, and the resolutions you want.

simultaneously (so sayeth David Dawes to me in mail within the
last week).
