Reducing the color depth to 16 allows the wimpy Rage XL (8 MiB) to do 1920x1080.
So then I moved the old slow X terminal out of the way and moved the shiny new
Dell ST2220T LCD into the prime spot in front of the keyboard drawer...
...and the cable doesn't reach. Two HD-15 to BNC cables

Have you tried:
$ xset +dpms
to use standby etc.?
xset: unknown option +dpms
I assume it needs more than the 5 coaxes to do dpms.
(It did appear to be working with the short cable that came
with the monitor.)

This is what I use in my xorg.conf
see below
Notice the mode line for resolution, and HorizSync30-107
VertRefresh 48-120
Also in my /etc/rc.conf I put these lines
hald_enable=YES
dbus_enable=YES
This sets up X for me every time and works great.

That is incorrect. Don't set AllowEmptyInput, just turn off AutoAddDevices.

If configuring this via X doesn't work, there's always xrandr
which you can call from your ~/.xinitrc (or ~/.xsession
respectively), like this:
xrandr --fb 1920x1080

Please don't mess with modelines, it should not be needed any more.
Just set the resolutions desired in the Screen/Display section. If
modelines are really required, get them out of /var/log/Xorg.0.log.
But they almost certainly
