It means what it says!

Here's mine (but you can't just copy it!):

Section "Screen"
    Driver      "accel"
    Device      "Matrox"
    Monitor     "Idek"
    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       8
        Modes       "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" "640x400"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       16
        Modes       "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" "640x400"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       24
        Modes       "800x600" "640x480"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       32
        Modes       "800x600" "640x480"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
EndSection

You should probably use XF86Setup (in xserver-vga16 package, I think)
to configure X for you.  You can then go on to edit what it produces.
