The config file is /etc/X11/XF86Config. But you will probably want to hit Ctrl-Alt-F1, log in as root, and run drakxconf. Make sure you have the correct monitor defined. You should be able to get 1280 x 1024 as long as you have the refresh rates set correctly.
Thank you, Mikkel. I am sure I set the refresh rates correctly as I got them from my monitor specs (Sony Trinitron G220). I am also surprised why I cannot have 1280x1024. I am now at 1024x768 and the icons seem a bit bulky, but it is nothing that terrible. In another computer I HAD to set 1280x1024 in order to have things set properly. Something in XF86Config you think?
Teilhard.
