Automatic refreshrate changing does not work when playing videos.

I noticed these in xbmc console output
cannot find mode 0x10d

With ubuntu binary xrandr mode changing using ID works fine.
I tried to compile xrandr from ubuntu sources, then xrandr has the same problem. See the copy pastes below.

For a workaround, I changed xbmc to use ubuntu binary for mode changes, and xbmc-xrandr for fetching the modes.

Distribution: Ubuntu 8.10 x86_64 2.6.27-9-generic
XBMC: revision 17558
