I'm sorry that I'm not good with the X configuration, but I use a Inspiron 4000 (1024 resolution) with Debian. Woody wasn't working automaticaly - but Knoppix do! So I run Knoppix and copied the xconfig file. Here a file that I use now - not shure what I changed after copied it from Knoppix. Live Linux Debian based: www.knoppix.org BTW do you know tuxmobil.org?
