Angelo, why do you have four different "Screen" sections in your 
XF86Config file? Also, you need to use "DefaultDepth" not 
"DefaultColorDepth". Here's the "Screen" section from my XF86Config:

Section "Screen"
	Identifier "Screen0"
	Device     "Card0"
	Monitor    "Monitor0"
	DefaultDepth 24
	SubSection "Display"
		Depth     8
	EndSubSection	SubSection "Display"
		Depth     16
	EndSubSection	SubSection "Display"
		Depth     24
	EndSubSection
EndSection

Since I'm not specifying a resolution, X is driving my display at 
the highest resolution it can handle, 1920x1440 and doing so with 24 
bit color.

In the meantime, try commenting out all the "Screen" sections but 
the "accel" section, and using "DefaultDepth" instead of 
"DefaultColorDepth". Good luck!

over.
