you should be able to set with sax2.
The important thing to remember is that the X will only use what it thinks the monitor is cabable of. So if you can't set to desired resolution change the monitor type. There should be a LCD 1280x1024 to choose.
I should have mentioned that I already tried this, using that Sax commandline that is in the Suse readme for the FGLRX module. Apparently it doesn't work :-(.

If you are using ATI's drivers from their website then you must use only their configuration programs and methods. IF you use Sax2 after loading ATI's drivers then you will have trouble. Don't know if this part of the problem or not. You can always delete/rename/move the XF86Config* files and start over with one method or the other but not both. The key is probably the monitor setting. If you have Windows *.inf files for that monitor, copy them to a floppy and load them up IF you are using Sax2. You can also add the monitor's parameters to /usr/X11R6/lib/sax/api/data/cdb/Monitors and choose it using Sax2. Can't remember how the ATI setup program runs and where you can specify the monitor parameters... Stan
