I usually find that I get this message when I don't have the proper hsync
and vsync defined for my monitor in /etc/X11/XF86Config.

I think you will find that they are either set too low for your monitor or
they are set for a fixed frequency monitor (Unlikely) and thats not one of
the valid frequencies.
