I purchased a new monitor (Envision G2016wa2 20" Widescreen) and a new graphics card (ATI Radeon X1650 Pro).
Here is a copy of the xorg.conf I needed to use to get both my old Dell 19 inch monitor and my new envision working on the same ATI Radeon with the right resolution (different) on both ...
xorg.conf to follow .
................................
# xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by failsafeDexconf, using
# values from the debconf database and some overrides to use vesa mode.
#
# You should use dexconf or another such tool for creating a "real" xorg.conf
# For example:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
