In an ideal world this would be true. However, X will often pick a
modeline that either drives the monitor at a frequency the monitor can't
handle, or one that isn't appropriate. The reason I provided the VESA
modelines is because one can be fairly confidant that the display will
look good at the VESA standard resolution.
If it just works with what X picks, consider yourself lucky.
