[ale] Monitor won't display more than 640x480

I am running RHL 9 and have a Mitsubishi Diamond Pro 900u monitor
connected via an Apex Outlook KVM to my Dell Latitude laptop. If I set
the resolution to greater than 640x480, it expands the resolution beyond
the size of the screen so all I see is the middle part of the window on
the monitor. When my mouse gets to the edge of the screen, the window
"scrolls over" so I can see the edges.
Is there such a thing as a monitor not being compatible w/ Linux? I
didn't find any monitors listed on the RH compatibility list or any
other compatibility lists, so I'm guessing not.
Attached is the XF86Config file I'm using.
Anyone have any ideas?
Mike

# Specify which keyboard LEDs can be user-controlled (eg, with xset(1))
# Option "Xleds" "1 2 3"
# To disable the XKEYBOARD extension, uncomment XkbDisable.
# Option "XkbDisable"
# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
