screen shimmering at 800 x 600 resolution in FC2

[Richard E Miles]

Since I did a clean install of Fc2 I have a problem at 800 x 600 resolution. I
did'nt have this with Fc1. Unfortionately I like to play 3d games and many of
these run at 800 X 600 reolution. ie unreal tournament and enemy-territory. I
can change the game resolution to 1280 x 1024 in enemy-territory but it always
resets to 800x600 when I restart the game. This is a pain. In unreal tournament
I don't know how to change the game resolution and thus can not play it.
I have a sony multiscan E400 monitor. The relevant xorg.conf section is:

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
        ModelName    "Sony CPD-E400/E400E"
        DisplaySize  370        270
        HorizSync    30.0 - 96.0
        VertRefresh  48.0 - 120.0
        Option      "dpms"
EndSection
 
Section "Device"
 
#       option          "NvAGP" "1"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Driver      "nvidia"
        VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
        BoardName   "NVIDIA GeForce 4 MX (generic)"
EndSection
                                                                                
Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Videocard0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Virtual   1600 1280
                Depth     24
                Modes    "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600"
"640x480"
        EndSubSection
EndSection
 
Section "DRI"
        Group        0
        Mode         0666
EndSection

Is there a setting I can make to have it allow 800x600 resolution? Any help
would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
