The problem with logging out is not general, I didn't have it with vesa - I think You should fill another bug and this one should be only about not working sis driver.

As for the vesa resolution - although, unfortunately, 1280x800 is impossible to get with vesa, 1280x768 is available if You put it explicite in Your xorg.conf, so it's "quite" ok. Performance is not very good, though.

That is why I keep to Hardy 8.04 LTS edition that sticks to X.org 7.3 and that will be supported till 2011. At least until 2011 I can use sis driver...

I'll attach my intrepid's xorg.conf with proper vesa entries, maybe it'll help.

One remark - those "Modeline" entries can be obtained by using the command:
gtf <h-resolution> <v-resolution> <refresh rate>
(see man gtf)
