Lolage - i did something similar - you need to modify your /etc/x11/x86config file. have a look online but basically you boot up into a prompt instead of a gui then modify that file with vim or pico etc.

Look here:

make sure u use the generic video card (s3 trio 4mb) and the default monitor it chooses - do not select your own or it will go fooked like it did for both phil and I. Then you have to piss about to get it working...
