I delete the xorg.conf and restart the X server.

The catchup dialog:

Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode
Your screen and graphics card could not be detected correctly.
To use higher resolutions, visual effects or multiple screens,
you have to configure the display yourself
[ ] Always run in low-graphics mode
[Configure...][Shut Down][Continue]

I continue (at this time there is a xconf.org and xconf.org.failsafe created. I get 1400x1050)

I get a dialog confirming the failsafe terminal which shows in the right bottom corner of the screen.

xorg.conf as uploaded above.

I just read about xrandr

This utility returns

Screen 0: minimum 1400 x 1050, current 1400 x 1050, maximum 1400 x 1050
default connected 1400x1050+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   1400x1050 60.0*

Is there a chance to add a different screen resolution?
