If that resolution is not an option using GNOME or KDE display
preferences then you will have to create an xorg.conf file...

i.e. I use something like this...

# cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
# Xorg configuration created by system-config-display

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "single head configuration"
        Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
EndSection


Section  "Monitor" 
        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        ModelName    "LCD Panel 1280x1024"
        Modeline     "1280x1024" 108.00  1280 1328 1440 1688  1024 1025
1028 1066 +HSync +VSync
        HorizSync    31.5 - 64.0
        VertRefresh  56.0 - 65.0
        Option      "dpms"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Driver      "radeon"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Videocard0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
                Modes     "1280x1024"
        EndSubSection
EndSection
