You might find useful tools such

SwitchResX http://www.madrau.com/indexSRX4.html
DisplayConfigX http://www.3dexpress.de/

with which you can hardcode the HDMI frame packing resolution for your 
projector.

The data you use in these tools needs to be carefully inserted, you can 
find an example implementation for X11 here 
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/bino-list/2011-03/msg00033.html or 
the specifications from 
http://www.hdmi.org/manufacturer/specification.aspx (or you can look 
them up in google).

Best,
Vitorio
