What does System->admin->display say in the display tab? I find that I
need to manually set that sometimes. I think I said
system->config->display the first time, had the wrong WM in front of me.
On the first tab (Settings), it tells me I have a setting of
1280x1024 (offering only smaller others), and millions of colors; on the
second (Hardware), it acknowledges what I think I told it -- that I have
an LCD panel 1680x1050. (Iirc, it had supposed I had a CRT; at least one
machine did.)
What I have been doing is use the admin->display to get the display type right,
check the video card (never had to change it), and then I could set size in the
system->prefderences->hardware->screenResolution. If that sequence doesn't show
the large sizes I have no other tricks (and haven't needed them to date).
