What's the xorg.conf look like?  Are there any messages 
in /var/log/Xorg*.log that complain about various Modes being 
unsupported?  Do you have your HorizSync and VertRefresh ranges up high 
enough?  LCDs don't really *have* Hsync and Vsync ranges the way CRTs 
do, but you need to have them set appropriately or X will get annoyed.  
I have Hsync at 31.5 - 120 and Vsync at 40 - 120, and 1400x1050 works 
perfectly with fglrx on a T42p.
