I believe system-config-display is still available for you to use to
create a xorg.conf file.  The new config-less X server works pretty
well for a lot of people but not everyone.  Someone in my LUG with a
very odd-resolution laptop had the same problem.  We ran
system-config-display, and then customized the "Screen" section to
include a Modes line with his resolution, and restarted X -- voila.
