I'm trying to set my resolution to 1152x864 using X v4 in mandrake 7.2, 
however the X server ignores this setting and defaults to 1024x768

According to my config file for X v3 I have the modelines for it, and it was 
my default resoltion for Mandrake 7.1

Any Ideas?

Here's a snippet of my config file:

# HorizSync is in kHz unless units are specified.
# HorizSync may be a comma separated list of discrete values, or a

    HorizSync  31.5-64.3


# VertRefresh is in Hz unless units are specified.
# VertRefresh may be a comma separated list of discrete values, or a

    VertRefresh 50-90
