There is a Modes line in the screen section, use a generic mode.
Don't specify a Modes section.
It could look like that:
Section "Screen"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768"
EndSubSection
Device "Device[0]"
Identifier "Screen[0]"
Monitor "Monitor[0]"
EndSection
Section "Device"
BoardName "mycard"
BusID "0:16:0"
Driver "ati"
Identifier "Device[0]"
Option "sw_cursor"
VendorName "ATI"
EndSection
