Screen Resolution on a Dell Inspiron 6400

[Ralph Thaller]

ok i edit it so:
Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "Standardbildschirm"
        Option          "DPMS"
        HorizSync    31.5 - 90.0
        VertRefresh  59.0 - 61.0
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier      "Default Screen"
        Device          "ATI Technologies, Inc. ATI Default Card"
        Monitor         "Standardbildschirm"
        DefaultDepth    24
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           1
                Modes "1280x800"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           4
                Modes "1280x800"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           8
                Modes "1280x800"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           15
                Modes "1280x800"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           16
                Modes "1280x800"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth           24
                Modes "1280x800"
        EndSubSection
EndSection
