in F11 the configuration is dynamically detected just as in F12, so you
still need a static
configuration in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, with a modeline like e.g.

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier     "DELL 2001FP"
        DisplaySize     367 275
        HorizSync       31-80
        VertRefresh     56-76
        Option          "DPMS"
        ModeLine        "1600x1200" 160.00 1600 1664 1856 2160 1200 1201
1204 1250
EndSection
