Question display problem with FC2 on Tecra 8200

I just finished installing FC2 on my Toshiba Tecra 8200 laptop, and the X window doesn't fill the screen. There is a black border for about an inch on the right-hand side and 1/4-inch on the bottom. Using FC1 the resolution was 1400x1050 and everything worked fine. I don't see how to bump the resolution up from what seems to be displaying at 1280x1024. My current settings are below:

System Settings -> Display

The "Settings" tab says:

Resolution: 1400x1050
Color Depth: Millions of Colors

The "Hardware" tab says:

Monitor Type: LCD Panel 1400x1050
Video Card: Trident CyberBladeXP

but when I got to Preferences -> Screen Resolution the only options are:

Resolution: 1280x1024 (and below)
Refresh rate: 60 Hz (only option)

in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file I have the following portions:

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName "LCD Panel 1400x1050"
HorizSync 31.5 - 90.0
VertRefresh 59.0 - 75.0
Option "dpms"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "trident"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "Trident CyberBladeXP"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1400x1050" "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection

Any help would be appreciated!
