Hello guys! I need a big help for now! 
I´m customizing my 15 kHz cabinet with MandrakeLinux 2005 LE, framebuffer 
support and advmame 0.97. Everything is ok, except setuping video 
resolutions with ADVCFG utility. When I use these configurations: 

pclock = 5-100 
hclock = 15.75 
vclock = 50-60 

I can get only a horizontal half-screen (like vertical games). When I tried 
to increase the size (I key), the video lose syncronism. So, I tried to 
increase the pclock with 10 or 12 value, but ADVCFG utility says 
"calibration mode unsupported. The video mode is incompatible with the 
monitor limitations!". With SVGALIB, it&#347; possible to use these pclocks, 
but I think it&#347; missing some configuration for framebuffer. It's 
necessary to include some video modes on the /etc/fb.modes file? I'M NOT 
USING VESA FRAMEBUFFER! 

Please, if somebody knows how to solve this problem, HELP ME!
