Your first "Depth"s were 8 and your Modes started with 640x800 (so that is
why it started that way).
My earlier email said:
Use DefaultColorDepth to set the default you want, like to 32.

Or you can also choose depth when starting like:
startx -- -bpp 32
By the way, I was given a simple tool that gives some useful info
like:
$ ./xvidmode
1024x768
clk=65000 hdisplay=1024 hsyncstart=1032 hsyncend=1176 htotal=1344
vdisplay=768 vsyncstart=771 vsyncend=777 vtotal=806
I'll package it up for NetBSD and send-pr it.
