xrandr throws an error:

is this a driver issue?

My fault, sorry. the randr call should have read :
xrandr --output VGA-1 --mode 1280x720

Use plain 'xrandr' to get a list of all supported modes.
'man xrandr' for more details.

Also, it might be easier to use some desktop applet rather than the command line to use RandR.
