I assume that you are now tearing your hair out because you can't get it
to start in 800x600 mode?
Here's my XF86Config file to give you some hints. My display starts at
1024x768 in 16 bit color.

The modes, indicated by the arrow above, is what dictates the resolution
order for the ctrl-alt-kp+/kp-. Since I have 1024x768 listed first it is
my default resolution. When I cycle through the resolutions it goes down
to 800x600 then 640x480.
kp+/kp- refers to the keypad plus and minus keys. They cycle forward and
backward through the resolutions. (With ctrl-alt pressed)
Hope this helps.
