The screen resolution is not specified in the "Monitor" section, but in the "Screen" section (in the "Monitor" section you only specify refresh rates for the resolutions given in the "Screen" section, not the resolutions themselves). For example: Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" Device "Device 0" Monitor "Monitor 0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 1 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 4 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 8 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 15 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 16 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 32 Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection The Device your graphics card. In each SubSection you specify desired screen resolutions for a given color depth. The resolutions and the depths should be available in your monitor and graphics card (check the manual).
