Overscan compensation on the updated 173.14.30

Hello.
Is there any chance that Overscan Compensation is added to 173.14.30 driver?
It's available on the Windows driver for quite some time, but wasn't on the older linux 173.XX.XX driver. I want to know that so i can install linux again, because the last time i installed it the lack of Overscan compensation made me use Windows instead (my image is "zoomed" and i can't see the borders, Overscan compensation fixes this both on windows and linux on my other PC with 9500GT and 275.XX drivers, and on windows only on my FX5200). I can't use the newer 275+ driver because the gpu is FX5200
Thanks in advance!

I'm afraid not. The legacy drivers get updates for newer kernels and X servers and critical bug fixes only.
