Chances are if it's set to that low, you have a fairly old laptop and
the configurator couldn't use hardware magic to auto-detect a good
resolution. Is that correct?

The best way to get it working is to google for the model of the
laptop and 'X86Free configuration'  (it translates easily to Xorg
config)

If you let the list know the model, we might be able to help a bit more.
