Hmm, perhaps you could post a copy of your current config, then we can
actually show you what to change!

Here's a more concise version that I have laying around, used for a
different monitor:

# -------------------------------
# File generated by anaconda.
# Modified by me!

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "Anaconda Configured"
        Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
        InputDevice    "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
        InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Section "Files"

# The location of the RGB database.  Note, this is the name of the
# file minus the extension (like ".txt" or ".db").  There is normally
# no need to change the default.

    RgbPath	"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"

# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together)
# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.
# I often end up adding them all here anyway because sometimes things 
# are broken without all the paths.
    FontPath   "unix/:7100"

EndSection

# Here is where we make changes for nVidia drivers
# Comment out GLcore and dri, and make sure glx is enabled

Section "Module"
#        Load  "GLcore"
        Load  "dbe"
        Load  "extmod"
	Load "fbdevhw"
#        Load "dri"
        Load  "glx"
        Load  "record"
        Load  "freetype"
        Load  "type1"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Keyboard0"
        Driver      "keyboard"

#	Option	"AutoRepeat"	"500 5"

# when using XQUEUE, comment out the above line, and uncomment the
# following line
#	Option	"Protocol"	"Xqueue"

# Specify which keyboard LEDs can be user-controlled (eg, with xset(1))
#	Option	"Xleds"		"1 2 3"

# To disable the XKEYBOARD extension, uncomment XkbDisable.
#	Option	"XkbDisable"

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults).  For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
#	Option	"XkbModel"	"pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
#	Option	"XkbModel"	"microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
#	Option	"XkbLayout"	"de"
# or:
#	Option	"XkbLayout"	"de"
#	Option	"XkbVariant"	"nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
#	Option	"XkbOptions"	"ctrl:nocaps"
	Option	"XkbRules"	"xfree86"
	Option	"XkbModel"	"pc105"
	Option	"XkbLayout"	"us"
	#Option	"XkbVariant"	""
	#Option	"XkbOptions"	""
