no, sorry.  It loads the first resolution listed for the bit depth you run so:

SubSection "Display"
      Depth        16
      Modes        "1280x1024"
      ViewPort     0 0

means load size at 1280x1024 when at bit depth 16.  Yours probably looks like

SubSection "Display"
      Depth        16
      Modes        "640x480" "800x600" "1024x768"
      ViewPort     0 0

so, place the mode you want defaul first:

Modes "800x600" "640x480" "1024x768"
