Driver declares 1280x800 support and detects a 1280x800 display, but
unfortunately can't use this res as no 1280x800 mode defined - either as
embedded xorg default, or explicit user Modeline. So it falls back to
built-in default 1024x768. Googled for modeline 1280x800 and here are
several modeline samples. Please include them all at once in your
xorg.conf, Section "Monitor". Xorg will pick the best one among them.

I would also suggest removing HorizSync and VertRefresh lines from
xorg.conf (again Section "Monitor") so that auto-detected DDC values will
take effect.
