I'm using a screen and a video card that supports 1600x1200 resolution. Since last week, there was no problem using this resolution. But with the current unstable version (6.7.197) and the experimental version (6.7.198), X starts with a resolution of 1280x1024.
This is probably because the preferred mode for your monitor is 1280x1024. Please send the output of xrandr.
Moreover, ctrl-+/- does not switch the resolution.
Yes, we have a bug report about this. I am not sure this is going to be fixed. There are many RandR applets to change the resolution with 2 clicks, it's probably enough.
However, "xrandr --verbose" shows max resolution is 1600x1200. But the kde resolution switcher allows to choose a 1600x1200 resolution. Sadly this resolution cannot be kept at restart of kde...
You need to use ModeLine+PreferredMode to get 1600x1200 at startup. Try adding
Option "PreferredMode" "1600x1200_75.00" to the Monitor section of your xorg.conf. If it does not work, you might need something like Option "Monitor-DVI-0" "Flatron" in your Device section. Let me know if it helps.All details are in section III of http://wiki.debian.org/XStrikeForce/HowToRandR12
