 What is your xorg.new.conf file? It's in the root directory.

Here is  my screen resolution from the above file
"Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Card0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     1
                Modes "640x480" "800x600" "1024x768" "1280x1024"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     4
                Modes "640x480" "800x600" "1024x768" "1280x1024"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     8
                Modes "640x480" "800x600" "1024x768" "1280x1024"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     15
                Modes "640x480" "800x600" "1024x768" "1280x1024"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     16
                Modes "640x480" "800x600" "1024x768" "1280x1024"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
                Modes "640x480" "800x600" "1024x768" "1280x1024"
        EndSubSection
EndSection"

You'll need to use vi to edit the file.
type>>vi /root/xorg.conf.new in the terminal as root. Use the down arrow to
move to the depth subsection of the screen section. Hit the escape key then
the letter i. Hit the right arrow until. I'm going touse>> <> Modes <>
"600x800" "1024x768" <> :w! <> :q! <
***********************************************
	My xorg.new.conf file did not have any mode statements. I added them but it
made no difference.
Still get the same errors as posted in original msg.
