am not sure but It worked for me in (FC5, KDE)

edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf as root

Scroll down to the "Monitor" section. Find the "HorizSync" line and 
enter your monitor's supported horizontal frequency range. The line 
should look something like "HorizSync 30.0 - 70.0". Enter your 
monitor's supported vertical frequency range opposite "VertRefresh". 
The line should look something like "VertRefresh 50.0 - 160.0". 
Scroll down to the "Screen" section and opposite each instance of 
"modes" enter you monitor's supported pixel resolution, starting with 
the highest. The line should look something like "Modes 
"1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"". You should be able to get these 
values from your monitor's manual or from a search for your monitor 
by manufacturer and model number on the Internet. Use caution when 
entering these values and be sure that they conform to your monitor's 
published specifications or you could be left with a non-working 
graphical environment. Hit the "save" button in gedit and exit gedit. 
Log out and log back in. 

Click "System" > "Administration" > "Display". Type your root 
password in the dialog box presented and hit enter. Click the down 
arrow on the right of the "Resolution:" box and select your preferred 
pixel resolution. Click the down arrow on the right of the "Color 
Depth:" box and select your preferred color depth. Log out and log 
back in.

Click "System" > "Preferences" > "Screen Resolution". Click the down 
arrow on the right of the "Resolution:" box and select your preferred 
pixel resolution. Click the down arrow on the right of the "Refresh 
rate:" box and select the highest refresh rate available. A refresh 
rate of 85 Hz or more will decrease noticeable flicker significantly 
and may eliminate it completely. Click "Apply".

You may need to navigate items like "Display" or "Screen Resolution" 
some other but similar way. 

Try and let us know if it works for you :)
Good Luck.
