The web archive at lists.debian.org has links to follow-up posts. You
can also google for the subject line, with the additional qualifier
"site:debian.org" appended to your query.

That still does not tell you which resolutions are supported by the
graphics card in your PC. We need to know exactly which graphics card
you have (the "lspci" command will tell you that), which version of
Debian you are using ("cat /etc/issue"), and how you have set up your X
Window system. The following command will extract the relevant parts of
your X configuration file:

cat /etc/X11/{XF86Config-4,xorg.conf} | awk '/Section 
"(Device|Monitor|Screen)"/,/EndSection/'
