Knoppix's hardware detection came up with a much better X configuration than
Debian's. I'm not sure if this will solve your problem, but it solved mine: I
have an old Fujitsu laptop attached to an external Samsung monitor, on which I
just couldn't get 1024x768. I overwrote my xorg.conf with Knoppix's
auto-generated XF86Config-4 file, and, after almost a year of fruitless
attempts and discussing groups hopping, I had 1024x768 resolution.
Perhaps it might be worth giving it a try.
