Hi 
Now the relevant parts of xorg.conf look like this: 
Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
        ModelName    "Monitor Model"
        Modeline     "1280x1024"  135.00  1280 1296 1440 1688  1024  1025 1028 1066 +hsync +vsync
        Modeline     "1024x768"   78.80  1024 1040 1136 1312  768 769 772 800 +hsync +vsync
        Modeline     "800x600"   49.50  800 816 896 1056  600 601 604  625 +hsync +vsync
EndSection
Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Card0"
        Driver      "via"
        Option      "EnableAGPDMA" "On"
        VendorName  "Unknown Vendor"
        BoardName   "Unknown Board"
        BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Card0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth 24
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     1
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     4
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     8
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     15
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     16
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
        EndSubSection
EndSection

The log can be seen here http://pastebin.com/m5b436a54 

I can still only choose between 1600x1200 and 640x480, which is strange, because these are not specified anywhere. 
Xavier, thank you very much for the help, I never had this kind of trouble before, so I don't really understand xorg.conf, modelines etc. 
Regards 
Martin
