Comment 3 for bug 148841

For mentoring:

I would suggest to add a "manual screen" to the "generic" screens. You would have to replace the labels in the dialog with entry fields that are disabled for all other screen models. furthermore you need to add a sane default value and a verification of the entered information. if the given sync ranges don't make any sense you would have to disable the "ok" button.

Nasty issue: getting translation done. we would need to write the english screen name into the xorg.conf, but we should display a translated term in the user interface. same applies to the "LCD generic" strings.
