Don't know if that helps you with FC2 here, but I had the same problem
with RH9 and FC1. I changed the line in /etc/X11/XF86Config and added
the 1024x768.

Section "Screen"
     Identifier  "venus_screen"
     Device      "venus_graphics_card"
     Monitor     "venus_monitor"
     #Option     "NvAgp" "0"
     DefaultDepth 24
     Subsection  "Display"
         Depth   24
         Modes   "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
         ViewPort        0 0
     EndSubsection
EndSection


Maybe that works with FC2 and X.org too??
