The difference I noticed is in the XF86Config-4.conf: 1. I had to use modes to use 1280x1024, with Nvidia I don't.
modes are predefined in the X driver
you might need to fiddle/define the modelines if you want 1400x1024 etc but lower res should be fine using the built in defaults
2. I run two X servers for 2 displays, one on AGP TNT2 and one on PCI MX-440. If I restart the second server, the character sizes change, from "normal" to tiny. I can get them back to normal by restarting gdm.
whacky ... - what does the XF86Config look like
watch out this is long!=============================

The only errors I see:
Symbol __glXActiveScreens from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libdri.a is unresolved!
Symbol __glXActiveScreens from module /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libdri.a is unresolved!
those seem to be non-critical warnings, we have 3D stuff working w/
nvidia cards and openGL apps ...
