I'll change strings to sth. more professional.

Regarding interlaced displays: that info would be encoded in the modeline flags?
Any hint for a spec on that value?
I however doubt that we target that audience or that it's using nvidia boards along \
side the binary blob.

(since denied for 4.8, this RR is gonna be discarded in favor of the vsync patch \
where i'll update the patch along this change)
