My Monitor was already coming up at 1280x1024.

Once you put in the modeline in XF86Config-4, how do you make X use it?

I copied and pasted this line into this part of XF86Config-4:
Section "Monitor"
    Identifier  "Monitor0"
    HorizSync   31.5 - 80.5
    VertRefresh 60 - 75
    Option "DPMS"
Modeline "1280x1024" 135 1280 1296 1440 1688 1024 1025 1028 1066
[...]

but it comes up at 1280x1024 H80 V75, as it always did without this 
modeline.  I know in Windows when I run at 1280x1024@60, I think the 
it's the V number which becomes 60 and the H number goes to something 
else.
