Hello;
     at the end of Xconfigurator you get to choose your screen size.
Just select more than one. 
I only have a 15" monitor so I choose 16-bit and 1024x768 down to 640x480.

Then when you are in 'X' do a ^alt+ 
(hold down the control key, and the alt key, then press the '+' key ON THE
KEYPAD to the right of the keyboard.
This will cycle through the video modes that you selected.

re-run Xconfigurator untill you get what you want.
