OK. It'll be instructive to look at the log to see what X thinks about
those resolutions, assuming they did get written to your XF86Config
file. The X log should be something like /var/log/XFree86.log. Poke
around in there. The X log will be long, but it's relatively readable.
There will be a part about 2/3 of the way through that logs X trying a
bunch of different resolutions, and deciding which ones work. See what
you can find in there.
