Your log says:
    (WW) RADEON(0): Panel size 1024x768 is derived, this may not be correct.
    If not, use PanelSize option to overwrite this setting
    (WW) RADEON(0): No valid timing info from BIOS.
so I guess the following option in the Device section of your xorg.conf
won't help:
    Option "PanelSize" "1024x768"

Can you try adding
    Option "LVDSProbePLL" "on"
to the Device section? (the manpage says it's on by default, but I don't
see this in the code...)

Can you try without any xorg.conf at all (just move the file away) and
tell me whether the xrandr output is the same?

Can you try adding ModeLine+PreferredMode to the Monitor section as
explained in section III.5 of
http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12 ?
