If you already have the monitor settings, can't you just put them in
xorg.conf? I find myself editing that by hand all the time, as the setup
utilities never do what I want.  And I have a monitor that does not sync
properly at certain resolutions and frequencies, so I have to mess with the
config file to make sure the system plays nice.
