| Short answer: Your modelines are wrong.

modelines are depreciated. More accurately, your refresh rate/resolution
combination is wrong. Example:

Section "Monitor"
~        Identifier  "SAMSUNG"
~        HorizSync   30-70
~        VertRefresh 50-160
~        Option "dpms"
~        vendorname "Samsung"
~        modelname "SyncMaster 763mb"
~        DisplaySize 325 245
	Gamma   1.35  1.30  1.50  # created by KGamma
EndSection

RandR extentions to XFree 4.3 add the ability to change any of these on
the fly. XFree now also gets a great deal of information from the
monitor's DDC.
