You should find something like this on your machine
Subsection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "640x480" "320x240"
EndSubSection
(not sure about "320x240".. just guessing since you said half screen! :-)
Change it to something like this.
Subsection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" "512x384" "320x240"
EndSubSection
(you choose whichever resolutions you want... this is what I have on my
machine)

./filename.bin will extract the file
(you may need to do a chmod +x filename.bin first though)
