kill any display managers(xdm, kdm, gdm etc) and run X from the command
line:
startx >&X.log
then paste the log to the mailinglist that will most likely show the
problem.
also what happens when you try 1600x1200 ? does the monitor go black?
does
the mode just not switch at all(maybe its deleted when X loads), does it
look real screwed up ? or what.
