You may experiment with different modelines and sync settings. On
http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl I calculated following modeline
based on your refresh rate values (are they correct and match the
display manual data?):

Modeline "1280x1024@72" 147.56 1280 1312 1872 1904 1024 1044 1056 1076
