Screen Resolution Question

Hmm,  I tried it...  dpkg-reconfigure properly recognizes my video 
card <ATI Radeon 7000>, my monitor <Daewoo 707B 17"> and allows me to 
state that I want to use 1280x1024 as one of my resolution options.

However, I reboot, log back into the machine and KDE...and it's still 
at 640x480 and no other options available through the Desktop Manager widget.
