Under the 'Subsection Display', you can specify the resolution of your display.

Example:

Code: 
    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       8
        Modes       "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       16
        Modes       "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection
    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       24
        Modes       "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600"
        ViewPort    0 0
    EndSubsection

Thank you, looks like it did the trick =)

But what about error in dmesg ?
 
There are no errors anywhere. Everything looks perfectly normal.

BTW, in case you have an LCD monitor, check its maximum resolution and set that as Modes in xorg.conf.
You can usually find the resolution in the manual or by pressing the configuration menu button on the monitor.
