Probably because that's the only mode built into the driver near your |

desired mode. |

Just put an appropriate modeline in your xorg.conf. Probably you can |
| 13 |
google it. But 1366 is a bit strange, though. In most cases, the |
| 14 |
horizontal size can be divided by 8, if not 16. |

Probably internal logic of the monitor. You'd have to ask its |
| 26 |
manufacturer reg. the "why". BTW, you didn't tell how the monitor is |
| 27 |
connected. Analog VGA? |
