Openchrome on Slackware

Dear slackers,

I just installed the Openchrome driver, since I have a:
VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. Chrome9 HC IGP (rev
01)

- and I have recycled an xorg.conf from my Arch installation:
http://syntaktisk.dk/files/xorg.conf.openchrome

- but it just won't give me a 1280x800 resolution, just crawls back to
default 1024x768. Any pointers?

Yours,
Morten

Openchrome on Slackware: Fixed

I made it work!
Thank you for your suggestions. I made it work by inserting a modeline.

Result:

Section "Module"

# This loads the DBE extension module.
    Load        "dbe"  	# Double buffer extension
    SubSection  "extmod"
      Option    "omit xfree86-dga"   # don't initialise the DGA
extension
    EndSubSection

# This loads the font modules
#   Load        "type1"
    Load        "freetype"
#    Load        "xtt"
