What resolution are you aiming for?

1. Try running X in verbose mode to check which modelines the screen
should support

"startx -- -logverbose 6"

and take a look a the /var/log/Xorg-0.log or XFree86-0.log

2. Some of these might work

    ModeLine       "1920x540_50" 74.250 1920 2448 2492 2640 540 574 579 562 +hsync +vsync
    ModeLine       "1920x1080_50i" 74.250 1920 2448 2492 2640 1080 1148 1158 1124 interlace +hsync +vsync
    ModeLine       "1280x720_50" 74.250 1280 1720 1760 1980 720 725 730 750 +hsync +vsync
    ModeLine       "1280x720_60" 74.250 1280 1390 1430 1650 720 725 730 750 +hsync +vsync
