actionparsnip thank you very much. the xorg.conf you proposed did all the magic :)
first i log out and the monitor just got black and gave me this info
"higher frequency"
H 91.1 khz
V 85.0 hz
i freaked out... i went to tty1 and shutdown -r now :):)
once it reboot i could see all the resolution i wanted. ::)):):))))
thanks again.

I have this same problem with the resolution on my FujitsuSiemens V5535! I've tried the xorg.conf that actionparsnip posted above but it makes no difference, i still can't get higher resolution than 800x600, and as i can see there are two (2) driver files for the graphics card in usr/lib/
