Restarting the X server more times didn't have any effect... nothing changed.
Good news this time ! Yeah Baby... IT WORKS this time !
The trick is exactly as you wrote: extending those "modes" line with the required (and supported) resolution.
For completeness I attached my working xorg.conf. (feel free to have a look)
The only thing I did was *adding* those 1280x800 resolutions, all the rest was default after Ubuntu installed,
and I added the restricted driver of ATI.
I am very pleased... Thanks for your precise and quick help.
Kind regards, Maarten.
