R help - May 2006 - Force coefficients in glm()

Hello,

I have a model
glm(Y ~ X, family = quasipoisson(link = "identity"))

I would like to vary the coefficient for X and observe the effect on the 
deviance.

Is this possible?

Many thanks,

library(MASS)
?profile
?profile.glm

(since this is just a profile likelihood).
