Yes, xrandr is claiming 30.3 KHz horizontal sync on that particular
mode. The Xorg.0.log has this for it:

Modeline "800x480"x60.0 32.00 800 840 968 1056 480 481 484 505 (30.3 kHz)

Actually, mine's not from DDC/EDID, but rather from an LVDS probe
performed by kernel/DRM during boot and then picked up by Xorg
directly from there. I'm assuming your device isn't LVDS either
though...
