Once you logged in X blindly as above, you should try: 1) take another machine and log on the first one through ssh 2) enter "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr" to see the available mode and currently used one (please send the output) 3) change to another mode with something like "DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output LVDS --mode 800x600" (assuming you want to change to 800x600 on the LVDS, i.e. the internal panel of a laptop). If you don't have another machine for (1), maybe try from a VT console on the first machine directly, but not sure it works well.
