how to set screen resolution properly on my Kubuntu-laptop???

[Magyari, Balázs]

Sorry, I must ask:
instead of this...

Section "Monitor"
   Identifier    "Generic Monitor"
   Option        "DPMS"
   HorizSync    28-64
   VertRefresh    43-60
EndSection

...should my "Monitor" section look like this below?

Section "Monitor"
       Identifier      "Generic Monitor"
       Option          "DPMS"
Modeline        "1280x800" 80.58 1280 1344 1480 1680 800 801 804 827

Now I understand your instructions like this, so please tell me if I'm
wrong, because I don't exactly now what I'm doing. If it's good then
please tell me and I change my xorg.conf and then watch the results
:-) (I don't want to ruin my computer with my mistake so I thought it
worth to ask one more question)
Thank you!
