try this (it may make sense to put it in a script so you can get back
to a working resolution) and let me know what happens.
------------------------------------------------------------------
xrandr --output TMDS-1 --mode 1920x540 --preferred
xrandr --output TMDS-1 --auto
you only need the following two lines if in a script....it brings the
resolution back to where you were
sleep 5
xrandr --output TMDS-1 --mode 720x480 --preferred
-------------------------------------------------------------------
If it doesn't work quite as expected reverse the --auto and
--preferred lines (I know....but in the past I've found it can make a
difference for reasons I never worked out!).
If you have a remote machine available connecting via x11vnc and then
issuing the commands can allow you to see what's going on even if it
won't physically display (that's how I worked this stuff out in the
past!!).
Let me know if it helps!
