What I cannot get to work at this point is the following

I start XF86Setup
choose the card in card settings
choose the monitor, enter the correct hsync and vsync
 (i.e. ver_refres = 30-64, hor_refresh=47-104)
and select 1280x1024 and 1024x768

BUT...

when I save and exit ,  in my XF86Config file there is only one
modeline
   Modeline  "1024x768"   65.00 1024 1032 1176 1344 768 771 777
806 -hsync
-vsync
nothing in regard to 1280x1024...

So, the question is, how can I get XF86Setup to add a modeline for
1280x1024...
