Dear Userland :-)
I don't use KDE, but resolutions can be changed by editing
/etc/X11/xorg.conf. Please, read its manpage or find a good
guide. I have this in my screen section:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Card0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024"
EndSubSection
EndSection
If anything goes wrong (or have already) you can look at
error messages in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
