What you have is exactly what I have on 1.4.0:
<requestHandler name="dismax" class="solr.SearchHandler" >
<lst name="defaults">
<str name="defType">dismax</str>
And it has worked fine. We copied our solrconfig.xml from the examples and
changed them for our purposes. You might compare your solrconfig.xml to some
of the examples.
