 This is not a KDE issue.  Please don't cross-post here.

 Try checking the log output (/var/log/XFree86.0.log) and see what the
 various resolutions are that it tries.  This will give you a hint as to why
 the wrong config file is being used and/or why X doesn't like the resolution
 that you've chosen.

 Are you sure that your screen can run at the increased resolution?

 Once X is running, what happens when you ctrl-alt-+ and ctrl-alt-- (using
 the + and - keys on the keypad part of the keyboard)?

 Jedd.
