[Newbie]cannot change virtual screensize: XF86Config "Virtual" lineignored

Thanks. Unfortunately, I can't do that since I have to use Modes
"default" (I don't know the correct Modelines for 1600x1200 on my
display). I suspect that when I use "default" there is a higher
resolution in its database that it sets the virtual resolution to, but I
haven't been able to find any information about the framebuffer driver's
internal video mode database.
