Widescreen Stretched

I have a widescreen LCD with a native resolution of 1920x1200 on a Radeon x800 with ATI's drivers. Whenever I try to play games or anything at a lower resolution, they get stretched (and thus, distorted) to fit the whole screen. How can I get them to run w/ black bars on the sides instead? I had this working before I switched to Arch, but unfortunately forgot to save my Xorg.conf.

I thought "NoStretch" would do it, but it didn't. Also added the resolutions to my modes lists but that didn't change anything.
