That is where I am myself confused. Lower resolutions were set up by the
system itself. I have manually added the 1024x748 setting.

I loaded the latest bios version from intel, but that was 2-3 months
back

But reading your mail gave me ideas. I installed winows xp to see if I
could set the req screen resolution and I could.

All gnome and kde are behaving the same way. The only thing I couldn't
understand was that the monitor refresh rate was set at 85, whereas this
model runs on 65 and I couldn't change that as no other option was
available.

I think it's bug in monitor section. I'll further investigate and report
if needed.
