Thanks for the suggestion Mark. I do have the modes entered, 
and even set it to the single mode of "1280x1024" but no 
luck. 

I went back and ran Xorg -configure again, and noted the 
following error messages:

dlopen: /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//atimisc_drv.so: 
Undefined symbol "ATIMemoryTypeNames_88800CX"
(EE) Failed to 
load   /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/drivers//atimisc_drv.so

(EE) Failed to load module "atimisc" (loader failed, 7)
(++) Using config file: "/root/xorg.conf.new"
(WW) RADEON: No matching Device section for instance (BusID 
PCI:1:0:1) found
(**) RADEON(0) : RADEONPreInit

atimisc_drv.so is present in the above mentioned directory. 

My graphics card is the PowerColor ATI Radeon 9600 Pro (RV350 
AP)
