I don't know how did you get the values for modeline option but I think
they are false:
ModeLine "1280x800" 83.91 1280 1312 1624 1656 800 816 824 841
I use gtf to get (in theory :) the good values.
gtf horizontal-resolution vertical-resolution refresh
So to match 83.91:
$ gtf 1280 800 60.32 

  # 1280x800 @ 60.32 Hz (GTF) hsync: 49.94 kHz; pclk: 83.91 MHz
  Modeline "1280x800_60.32"  83.91  1280 1344 1480 1680  800 801 804 828
-HSync +Vsync
The other values are very different.

You should try gtf with a refresh rate of 60Hz (refresh rate for lcd
screens). And if there is still "(II) VESA(0): Not using mode
"1280x800" (no mode of this name)" in your log, probably your video bios
is ugly and cannot display wide resolution with vesa driver.

I'm also surprised by this warning "(WW) VESA(0): remove MTRR 0 - 1000".
In my log I have "(==) VESA(0): Write-combining range (0x0,0x1000) was
already clear". A problem with mtrr? I read there is a nomtrr option
(man xorg.conf), perhaps it will fix it.
