Does someone know how can I change monitor resolution?
Look for a section in your /etc/X11/XF86Config that looks something like this:

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Card0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth 24
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     15
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     16
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     24
                Modes     "1600x1200"
        EndSubSection
EndSection
The 1600x1200 won't necessarily be under that 24-bit depth, but its just to give you an idea. Change 
that 1600x1200 to 1024x768 or something a bit more sensible. Save it. Restart X.
