openSUSE 10.2 - Radeon 1600X Screen Resolution

I recently picked up openSUSE 10.2, and I installed the ATI/fglrx drivers as needed, and the 3D works, but now every time I boot into SUSE, I can't find a resolution that fits my screen correctly. The only one that does is 800x600, and it's quite an eyesore. Is there something I'm missing in the configuration?

My xorg.conf:

-------------------------------------------

I also checked the fglrxinfo, and it shows that the ATI card is the current card running.

And on some resolutions, I get about half an inch or so of black space on the right side of the monitor, almost as if the screen itself was pushed to the right.

Have you tried going through yast? If you go to yast->hardware->graphics card and monitor, you should be able to select the type of screen that you have or just select a generic LCD with the right dimensions of your current screen.
