I had a similar problem and posted it here--it ~seems~ that a lot of people 
get it running successfully by just using the voodoo3 driver .
I didn't have luck with that solution, and actually had better success 
dropping back to XFree 3.x and just picking generic VGA--I still couldn't 
get better than 600 x 400 but it beat that 300x whatever that you're 
probably getting.

Your /var/logl/XFree86.0.log should give you a few clues too.
Not sure if this helps at all, save to let you know that you're not alone.
