I had the same problem. What I found out is that some of the PNP monitors do not respond correctly when interrogated by the OS. When you set the resolution to 1024X768 the monitor will incorrectly tell the OS that it cannot do that resolution and the OS will default back to 800X600. Anyway.. this is the problem that I had with my monitor. So, goto Mandrake Control Center -> Hardware -> Monitor, and select a generic monitor resolution that is compatible with your monitor. (You may need the monitor specs to do this.) Then you can go to the Resolution setting (same place) and select the higher resolution that you want. Hope this helps -- It fixed my problem.
