Well now wait a minute. I seem to recall something like this, and there are two totally different things you need to fiddle. The xorg.conf file says what is possible, but somewhere else in some mysterious location, there is the default resolution. I know it isn't stashed in the xorg.conf file, but gnome stores it somewhere when (as root) you go into the preferences menu and select screen resolution - there is a little checkbox that says "make this the default for this machine". I'm pretty sure that is the resolution it uses for the login screen.
