You can edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf. In it you should see a section
labeled 'Section "Screen"'.
Inside that section is probably as SubSection labeled 'SubSection
"Display"' (if not, then create it) and inside that there may or may
not be a "Modes" line. Edit the Modes so it reads 'Modes "1024x768"'.
Now when your X server starts it will start in 1024x768 mode.
