hi,

1. Select a generic VGA driver and configure your monitor throug 
   Xconfigurator

2. Add the following lines to   /etc/X11/XF86Config-4  file

Section "Device"
        Identifier "MyVideoCard"
        Driver "vesa"
        BoardName "Unknown"
EndSection

3.Change the Screen section's Device name to "MyVideoCard"

E.G

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"

        # Change here
        Device "MyVideoCard"   

        Monitor "S/T 57/56E/V"
        DefaultDepth 16
        Subsection "Display"
                Depth 16
                Modes "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection

EndSection

Hope this will work.
