Nowadays, there is (almost) no need to specify the video driver and
resolution in /etc/X11/xorg.conf... thanks to xorg auto-configuration
and X-Window's randr.

See Gnome menu>System>Preferences>Screen Resolution. Personally, I also
use lxrandr on my laptop (despite the fact I use gnome).

BTW, what's your need/problem ?
