Hi group, I just installed FreeBSD for the first time tonight, and so far, 
everything is going quite well. My only complaint is that X isn't behaving 
very nicely.

I'm running x as 'startx -- -depth 24'

The highest resolution setup in my XF86Config is 1280x1024, my preferred 
resolution. However, X is actually running at 1600x1200 and a quite 
abominobal refresh rate that is about to making my eyes rot. Any help would 
be more appreciated. 

Here is the output of xvidtune -show:

su-2.05b# xvidtune -show
"1600x1200"   162.00   1600 1664 1856 2160   1200 1201 1204 1250 +hsync +vsync


And here is my XF86Config
