Try to find the XF86Config file. It is normally
installed in /etc.
startup vi and edit this file. Their should be an entry
of virtual screens. Set it to the same size as your screen
i.e. 1024 x 767 or any other mode you are using.
I think it is in the screen section of that file.

Press ALT+F1 to leave X-windows and login
