As root, type Xconfigurator (or is it XConfigurator? It's a long time since I used RH). This will allow you to set it manually.
Select generic laptop display 1024 x 768 at first. You will also have to select which graphics card you have, and also the video memory.

The point is....you don't need to know if you use generic lcd settings.
