Dear Sreenadh....I added the lines there, but even after logging out that
doesn't make any difference.The section "screen now looks this way.Plz see
that....
Section "Screen"
    Identifier    "Default Screen"
    Monitor        "Configured Monitor"
DefaultDepth    24
SubSection "Display"
                Depth           24
                Modes           "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
Anything to be changed?
