Hi,

Alright, well, let's try this:

In your new xorg file change this:

#Option     "NoAccel"

To:

Option     "NoAccel"

And:

> 	SubSection "Display"
> 		Viewport   0 0
> 		Depth     24
> 	EndSubSection

To:

 	SubSection "Display"
 		Viewport   0 0
 		Depth     24
                Virtual 1024 1024
 	EndSubSection

And reload/reboot. Hope it works!
