Bet it does not help, but here is my config file for screen at that
res and it works on my comp.

# xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file)

# This file was generated by failsafeDexconf, using
# values from the debconf database and some overrides to use vesa mode.

# You should use dexconf or another such tool for creating a "real" xorg.conf

#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
