    xvidtune (1x) - video mode tuner for XFree86
    You can view, and adjust resolutions, with xvidtune.

    xdpyinfo (1x) - display information utility for X

    I would also suggest you try a lower color depth, such as 16, to see
    if that works better. I forgot to mention that in the last post.
    I default to 16 here.
