X settings not applying?

[Eric Scott]

   Heya, I've got a new woody installation.  My Panasonic E15 monitor 
diplays up to 1024x768.  800x600 works with the default settings on 
basically any operating system, but to get 1024x768 to purr I had to 
tweak the refresh rate(s).  First I figured out on Windows that it only 
works right under 75Hz vertical.  Then under Mandrake and Suse I found 
that the horizontal had to include something in the neighborhood of 65. 
Setting something like [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a horizontal rate of 30-60 
has made this this work swell with everything else... then I decided to 
try woody.  I dried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86, and supposedly set 
it all right (VESA driver... same as I use in SuSE).  I looked at the 
config file, and have tried messing with it... everything's fine. 
Restart X.... NO difference.  It does the exact same thing as it usually 
does with [EMAIL PROTECTED] display fine, but with the image "leaning" 
off to the right side of the screen and, strangley enough, seemingly 
folding underneath itself.  The part of the screen that is off to the 
right of the monitor displays in reverse... kinda like a transluscent 
folded-under burritto shell. The old-style knobs to center and size the 
display area don't turn far enough to center the image.

   Clear as mudd? Good.  Basically, X doesn't seem to be displaying 
@75Hz like I tell it to, and insists on doing 60Hz.  Any help?
      Thanx,
          ES
