I just connected the DVI-D output from my new system to the Dell monitor and now it's back at 1152x864 even with the above "Preferred Mode" line in xorg.conf. For some reason Xorg does different things when the DVI-D output is connected.
I wonder if X considers the two outputs to be two different screens. If you connect a monitor to each do you get a different picture on each?
If that is the case I still haven't done the background reading for how to mark xorg.conf setting for use on a particular screen but that may be a good place to start.
HTH, Steve.
