Modern xorg doesn't need a .conf file on the whole but I find that with
funky screen sizes and quirky multi-monitor set-ups they are still
necessary.
I never quite got 1366x768 the best I've done is 1360x768, I've
frequently seen it said that horizontal resolutions must be divisible by
8 and thus have tried 1368x768 but I never got that to work.

The above modeline results in a 60Hz refresh rate, with the radeon
driver at least I have to put
Option "PanelSize" "1360x768"
in my "Device" section, a useful resource for calculating modelines is
http://www.tkk.fi/Misc/Electronics/faq/vga2rgb/calc.html
and
http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl
God luck.

Hi,
I have installed Debian Lenny on a Compaq Presario. The screen
resolution was automatically set to 1024x768.
This resolution seems to be the highest available based on the output of
'xrandr'.
The native screen resolution for my laptop is 1366x768.
I'd appreciate anyone suggesting how to go about it.
Thanking you all in advance.
Alexander Kapshuk.
