Thanks, I've found info about the monitor and resolution modes in the monitor's manual. You actually don't have to define frequency. I see something else in the output of the "dmesg" command: VT(vga): resolution 640x480 I guess that's the problem. But I do not remember how to fix it after clean installation.
