Are you using an Intel video chipset?

If so, you have to "yum install 915resolution"

Put the proper settings in /etc/sysconfig/915resolution

Here is what it should be for my monitor:

QUOTE
# Mode to overwrite
 RESOLUTION="58 1680 1050 32 2240 1089"
END OF QUOTE

The numbers consist of the mode to overwrite in the bios, the resolution that
you want (x and y), the bits per pixel, h_blank_end and v_blanking from the
Xorg.0.log file.  Get the right numbers from your Xorg.0.log file.

Turn on 915resolution under  "system-administration-services"

Reboot and that should do it.
