X not loading in full screen

The monitor is a laptop LCD screen.  See my xorg.conf at 
http://www.atopia.net/scratch/xorg.conf.  I also tried stretching the 
screen in my bios, that stretches the console but X still starts in a 
small window in the middle of my screen.  My laptop is a Toshiba Satellite 
2675DVD.

The log file doesn't say much at all.  Did you want me to post that as 
well?
