I had to actually modify my XF86config file myself to get the laptop have a greater resolution. I'm using 1024x768 on a Sony VAIO laptop! As I'm really short on time now, I have to go to work reaaaalllyy fast but I'll send you my config file as soon as possible if you didn't find the answer before I do it ! It will probably be tonight though (got loads of work).
