You can use the flag "DoubleScan" to build a modeline where each row
is repeated, eg

Modeline "320x240D@120"  25.0   320  328  348  408  240  242  245  254
-Hsync -Vsync DoubleScan

My laptop isn't accessible at the moment, so I can't check this on
the neomagic driver, but you might wish to run it at half speed.
