Missing note:
[1] These steps:
	1. XFree86 -configure
	2. Paste the new "Device" section into my already working 
	XF86Config which only has 1 entry for 1280x1024 mode.

This indicates another serious problem with xf86cfg, in that LCD
monitors (like my Samsung 17" 760V) just can *not* do the default video
mode.  What the solution is, I haven't a clue.
