That is because you don't normally need an xorg.conf file. Most recent displays are going to do proper EDID and X can using that information and information from the video card drivers / video card to figure out which resolutions are usable.

Nothing I have tried seems to work except xrandr.

You don't need to use system-config-display. Just plop a similar xorg.conf file with timing data appropriate for your monitor. I though you had already collected that and should be able to use it instead of the timing data I had.
