problem configuring XFree86 on ATI Rage Pro AGP 8MB

I can't get into 1280x1024x24 mode. 1024x768x24 works just fine.
 
It seems I'm having trouble getting the X server to see all of the video memory, from XFreee86.0.log:
 
...
(--) ATI(0): 4096 kB of SGRAM (1:1) detected (using 4095 kB).
...
(II) ATI(0): Not using default mode "1280x1024" (insufficient memory for mode)
(II) ATI(0): Not using default mode "1280x1024" (insufficient memory for mode)
(II) ATI(0): Not using default mode "1280x1024" (insufficient memory for mode)
...
(II) ATI(0): Not using mode "1280x1024" (no mode of this name)
 
I have upgraded the video RAM from 4mB to 8mB. The above log is after booting with 8mB. What I'm wondering is if the video RAM is probed every time the X server is started or is this value stored in a file somewhere between boots? If it's not probed, is there a way I can force a probe? Are there any diagnostics (like superprobe) that would allow me to check this value independently of the X server? Any other ideas about what I might be doing wrong?
 
I can post all of the XF86Config-4 and  XFreee86.0.log files if this will help.
 
Thanks,
-Reed
