It is just a matter of reformatting.  Eg, from this box:


(II) Reloading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/libddc.a
[etc]
(II) RADEON(0): Supported Future Video Modes:
(II) RADEON(0): #0: hsize: 1600  vsize 1200  refresh: 60  vid: 16553
(II) RADEON(0): Supported additional Video Mode:
(II) RADEON(0): clock: 162.0 MHz   Image Size:  305 x 228 mm
(II) RADEON(0): h_active: 1600  h_sync: 1664  h_sync_end 1856 h_blank_end 2160 h_border: 0
(II) RADEON(0): v_active: 1200  v_sync: 1201  v_sync_end 1204 v_blanking: 1250 v_border: 0

Those lines give the data for a modeline.  That translates to:

Modeline "1600x1200x60"  162.0  1600 1664 1856 2160  1200 1201 1204 1250
