From what I can tell, Xorg doesn't recognize your monitor. You are either using a quite old monitor, or the EDID information doesn't get through (did you check the cables?).

Thanks! I should have thought of the difference between detecting the video card and the monitor. I'm looking into how hal can be given this information. I noticed that I didn't have read-edid installed. I installed it and it didn't immediately solve the problem.

The monitor is identified but some of the info appears not to be text:
