Building wine from source right now to see how things go for that. Otherwise adding the modelines now is resulting in a few native linux games (Secret Maryo Chronicles, Kobo Deluxe, Chromium B.S.U. despite not switching back to the previous desktop resolution, Neverball/Neverputt, Rom Check Fail has the same switchback issue as Chromium B.S.U., LTris, LBreakout2, and Freedroid to name a few). I "may" have figured out why some 15khz modes are so far off to the left, but I'm not entirely certain. Still boggled by why the 15khz modes causes dialogue boxes and menus to become too tiny to read (even at 1024x768 31KHz).
Calamity:
I understand you're using a script to switch modes now as suggested. I forgot to mention you need to restore the desktop video mode explicitely by means of xrandr before deleting the custom modes. Yeah the problem of the tiny fonts after switching modes is there, I don't know if there's a way to solve it.

I do agree, but do you mean there's already more access violations you're aware of or just that they potentially could exist?
Ansa89:
Nope, mine was only a supposition based on what I've seen while trying to fix the segfault.
You can read my previous message as "IMHO there are some other nasty errors, which may lead to strange behaviors".
NightSprinter:
So far, using "xrandr --dpi 96" has helped (along with re-closing everything). Calamity, do you think something could be off with the 15KHz modes on the NEC? The image is shifted down and to the left quite a bit (even on native linux stuff). Much like in the smartphone pics I posted, no such issue occurs in any 31KHz or above mode.. more or less.
Also, for anyone else that has a sound card with a joystick port: DO NOT USE THE GRIP_MP MODULE!! For some reason it will cause a kernel panic. Two Gravis GamePad Pros work just fine Might look into a quartet of Sidewinder Gmaepads down the road.
