I'll answer that myself, since I just found the solution. It was as
simple as this:

# X -configure (without X started)
# mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Edit this file:

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Card0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        ...
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
        Modes "1280x1024"
        EndSubSection
EndSection

And that's it. Works perfectly.

Cheers,

Niki
