I found something strange:

You have many depth entries (why not just one with the depth you
want to use?), but the setting DefaultDepth seems to be missing.

Section "Screen"
        Identifier      "Screen0"
        Device          "Card0"
        Monitor         "Monitor0"
        Option          "Accel"
        DefaultDepth    24
        SubSection      "Display"
                Depth   24
                Modes   "1280x768"
        EndSubSection
EndSection

How about trimming your section down (as above), just to eliminate
possible causes for the problem?

The rest seems to look completely okay... no reason why the
selected mode should not get set.
