X will choose the best mode it can use, and I suspect it is running in
its lowest common denominator because your XF86Config has no HorizSync,
VertRefresh, or Modelines.
You might want to check your monitor's specs first, but there's a fair
chance you can just copy these 5 lines from mine and put them in the
Monitor section: (they'll get broken by line wrapping for email)
HorizSync 30-70
VertRefresh 50-150
ModeLine "1024x480" 65.00 1024 1032 1176 1344 480 488 494
563 -hsync -vs
ModeLine "768x576" 50.00 768 832 846 1000 576 590 595
630
ModeLine "768x576" 63.07 768 800 960 1024 576 578 590
