## #    Check This First 

                Are you certain that /etc/X11/XF86Config is the file
        it is probably this ..  ( please check )
                /etc/X11/XF86Config-4

        if the file exists make changes in that file... because you are probably 
using  XFree86-4.x 
        

###     Otherwise check this

Is the resolution changing ?

are the sizes of the fonts / icons the same when you change the resolution... 
even with 800x600  and 640x480.

if the sizes are the same...

from your file i assume that you wish to use the "svga" driver...
which display card do you have ? ( and Vram ? )

are you certain that this driver is not being used instead??
