Ctl+Alt+ kbd '+'/'-' will rotate through the resolutions defined in your
/etc/X11/Xh86Config-4 file. Depending on the monitor you selected, there will
be more/fewer resolutions defined. You can always edit the file and define a
few more.
Here is a sample from my config
Subsection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubsection
