I had a similar experience. I solved the problem by
editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf. In the section "Screen" you can define:
        DefaultDepth     16
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     16
                Modes    "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768"
"800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection

Remark: the Modes-line should be on one line!

Hope this solves your problem.

Cheers,
Aad
