man xorg.conf

example:
Section "Screen"
         Identifier "Screen0"

         Monitor    "Monitor0"
         DefaultDepth     24
         DefaultFbBPP     32
         SubSection "Display"
                 Depth     24
                 Modes    "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600"
         EndSubSection
         SubSection "Display"
                 Depth     4
         EndSubSection
         SubSection "Display"
                 Depth     8
                 Modes    "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600"
