Hi
I have a 1280 x 768 widescreen and since linux cannot suppout this
resolution by default, I followed some instructions found in websites
and modified the xorg.conf file.
After modifying the xorg.conf file, I got the resolution I wanted.
However, I was unable to get it to display as one of the avilable
resolution in gnome's display manager.  Is it possible to make it listed
in the list of resolutions to pick from?

This is what I have in my xorg.conf right now:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier   "Monitor0"
VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName    "LCD Panel 1280x768"
HorizSync    31.5 - 48.5

EndSection

EndSubSection

EndSubSection
EndSection

Thanks,
