Running Gentoo linux
Kde-3.4.1

How can I get a greater resolution in my kde sessions?

It seems 1152x1024 is the highest I can get.  But with the monitor
mentioned in xorg.conf I should be able to get 1280x1024 or even
greater.

monitor is:
	ModelName    "hp mx703"
	HorizSync    30.0 - 70.0
	VertRefresh  50.0 - 140.0
