Drivers probably aren't working right and probing the right resolutions 
from the display.  Check your drivers in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and 
/var/log/Xorg.0.log.  What kind of video is it?  If ati/nvidia, you'll 
want to install the proprietary blob drivers to get any level of 
performance and features.
