As root.

I finally got this working. I had to go and find the exact specs for
the Daewoo 707B monitor then manually enter them into the xorg.config
file. I also needed to add the actual modes in the screen section. Now
I'm running at 1280x1024 and have lots of desktop room to fill. :-)
My config file looks like this -
# Xorg configuration created by system-config-display
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "single head configuration"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

"Huh?!?" - Me, two seconds after being told not to lean on that big red
button and one second before the Haylon system activated.
