This reminds me I did change screen resolution via an autorun script on E17 
some time ago (when E17's resolution control showed only the default screen 
resolution).

I can't find the script now, but simply running "xrandr -s 1024x768" from 
terminal inside od E17 changes the resolution correctly. Running just "xrandr" 
should give you the list of supported resolution, if the desired one is not 
listed you have to add a modeline. When you have the correct xrandr call(s) 
tested, you can automate it by creating say change-resolution.sh (should go in 
your PATH I think):
#!/bin/sh
xrandr -s ...

which you then set up to autorun in control center -- aplications -- 
aplication on start (hope I translated it correctly from my localization).

Regards,
Nicky
