What is the link between a monitor and a video card? Adding monitor-related settings in xorg.conf will not replace a failing video card driver.

If you get your driver to work, use these settings:
Code:
Section "Screen"
    Identifier "Screen0"
    Device     "Card0"
    Monitor    "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth  24
    SubSection "Display"
        Viewport   0 0
        Depth     24
        Modes   "1920x1080"
    EndSubSection
EndSection
I got the Modes from here. Change it if it's wrong.

If the driver doesn't work, you may want to install the vesa driver and use Driver "vesa" instead of the S3 driver.
