Is there any way to turn off viewport mode and still have multiple video 
modes? I seem to remember this working in the past but it just doesn't 
seem to work now.

The default mode is just the biggest one you allow and all others go 
into Viewport mode when they're activated.

Commenting out the "Viewport" line in the Screen section doesn't seem to 
make a difference.


Here's some of my XF86Config...

Section "Monitor"
         #DisplaySize      310   230     # mm
         Identifier   "Monitor0"
         VendorName   "GWY"
         ModelName    "VX720"
         Option      "DPMS"
         HorizSync       31.5-93.8
         VertRefresh     59.9-75
         Modeline "1152x864"  108.00  1152 1216 1344 1600  864 865 868 
900 +hsync +vsync
         Modeline "1024x768"   78.80  1024 1040 1136 1312  768 769 772 
800 +hsync +vsync
         Modeline "800x600"   49.50  800 816 896 1056  600 601 604 625 
+hsync +vsync
         Modeline "640x480"   31.50  640 656 720 840  480 481 484 500 
-hsync -vsync
EndSection


Section "Screen"
         Identifier "Screen0"
         Device     "Card0"
         Monitor    "Monitor0"
         DefaultDepth 24
         SubSection "Display"
                 Viewport   0 0
                 Depth     1
         EndSubSection
         SubSection "Display"
                 Viewport   0 0
                 Depth     4
         EndSubSection
         SubSection "Display"
                 Viewport   0 0
                 Depth     8
         EndSubSection
         SubSection "Display"
                 Viewport   0 0
                 Depth     15
         EndSubSection
         SubSection "Display"
                 Viewport   0 0
                 Depth     16
         EndSubSection
         SubSection "Display"
                 #Viewport   0 0
                 Depth     24
                 Modes "1152x864" "1024x768" "640x480" "800x600"
         EndSubSection
EndSection

Any help would be great.
