Hi, Matt,
Try 'xf86config'. This utility requires no information about your
monitor except its horizontal and vertical refresh rates. It doesn't
care if your monitor was made by Sony or Fred Flintstone. Also, with
your present X configuration, have you tried starting X with "startx --
-bpp 32"? You probably have a 32 bpp entry on your
/etc/X11/XF86Config. This will startx X in 32 bits per pixel color
depth. Good luck,
Hidong
