after i wrote to you i realized you have been talking about the X res.
the only place this should be controlled is in your XF86Config. on
Redhat systems this is under /etc/X11. it may be some place else on
your system. in my config, the relevant entry looks like this:
Section "Screen"
Driver "accel"
Device "ATI|3D Rage Pro AGP 1X/2X"
Monitor "Acer AcerView 77is"
DefaultColorDepth 32
Subsection "Display"
Depth 8
Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
Subsection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
Subsection "Display"
Depth 32
Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864"
ViewPort 0 0
EndSubsection
EndSection
the important lines are the 'DefaultColorDepth' and the Modes line.
notice that i have the higher res "1280x1024" listed before the the
lower one. perhaps you need to change the order of these lines. i had
to add both the DefaultColorDepth and reorder the Mode line manually.
