Welcome aboard.
Are you listing one resolution in your configuration, or several?
If several, have you tried <ctl><alt>- or <ctl><alt>+ while running X?
These are the keystrokes to cycle through screen resolutions on the fly
if you've listed several settings for your display size.
If only one resolution, then in the config tools you've been running, is
there an option for testing the configuration? You should be able to
choose a resolution, test it, and see if it comes up...
Which version of XFree86 are you running, 3.x or 4? I've not yet had
much chance to fool with the configs for version 4, beyond the
realization that they changed a lot of stuff. :-C
