I think this will work for you :
1. run system-config-display
2. Enter root password when prompted
3. Go to 'Hardware' tab.
4. In monitor type section - click configure
5. Now select LCD/CRT and then appropriate resolution.
If you dont have 'system-config-display' (as it was in my case), install it with
yum install system-config-display
