What kind of monitors do you have? One on the DVI output right? Which
resolution and refresh rate did you get before the upgrade?
Do you have a way to open a terminal and run xrandr commands to see the
available mode and switch to another one?
Can you try adding:
Option "Monitor-DVI-0" "Configured Monitor"
to the Device section and:
Modeline "1024x768_60.00" 64.11 1024 1080 1184 1344 768 769 772
795 -HSync +Vsync
Option "PreferredMode" "1024x768_60.00"
to the Monitor section?
It is supposed to force 1024x768 at 60Hz (Modeline comes from gtf 1024
768 60).
