a problem setting screen resolution with Xorg-6.9.0

Fellow FreeBSDers,

I originally sent this to FreeBSD-X11, but this may be a more appropriate venue.

I have recently installed FreeBSD 6.1 on a Pentium III box, using an NVidia GeForce 2 GTS card and a CTX PL9 monitor.  Running "X -configure" as root generates the file xorg.conf.new, and then running "X -config xorg.conf.new", pulls up a generic X screen with a resolution of 1600x1200.  I go in and modify the xorg.conf.new file to make the default resolution 1280x1024, and rerun "X -config xorg.conf.new", but the resolution is still 1600x1200.  This is a wonderful resolution, but it makes everything rather small, and the icons are difficult to see.  I am obviously setting something wrong, but I do not know what it is.  Might anyone have any suggestions.  I really would rather have the resolution be 1280x1024.  Thanks for your help!

The following is the file xorg.conf.new:
