Hi.
I'm trying to run xorg with the latest ati-drivers @ 1600x1200. When using the 'fglrx' module, all I get is a "out of sync" message from my monitor (viewsonic vp201s). Other screen resolutions can be applied but the monitor has 1600x1200 as optimal resolution (tft).
I have the correct V/H-sync lines in xorg.conf.
When I use the 'radeon' driver it works perfectly. I've also tried using the config generated by '/opt/ati/bin/fglrxconfig' with no success.
Section "Monitor" Identifier "ViewSonic" HorizSync 30-92 VertRefresh 50-85 Option "DPMS" EndSection
Maybe you can try lowering the above values, although these settings should be correct there is a change that the monitor can't reach it.
strange is that it works fine with 'radeon' but not with 'fglrx'. However I found a modeline that seemed to fix the problem.

I'm not really suprised actually, I had the same problem with my laptop (but with the nvidia drivers)
I couldn't get it working on 1024x768 or it would display something very weird (I guess it doesn't warn about incorrect modes) so after changing them a little it worked :)
