You're going to have to edit your xorg.conf file and add them. It's a
little annoying that it doesnt always detect all of them


Code:
--------------------
    sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
--------------------




checkout this section


Code:
--------------------
    	SubSection "Display"

  		Depth		24

  		Modes		"1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"

  	EndSubSection
--------------------


and just add the resolutions you need.

next time you restart X, it should work for you. if not, do you have
the best driver available?
