afaik there is no way to edit the virtual screen size after X has started??? so i _have_ to do it in xorg.conf to get more than 800x600 on vga output with xrandr?
i'll try this in the xorg.conf
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Subsection "Display"
Virtual 2048 2048
EndSubsection
EndSection
And get this error
(==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf"
Parse error on line 9 of section Screen in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf
This section must have an Identifier line.
(EE) Problem parsing the config file
(EE) Error parsing the config file
Fatal server error:
no screens found
(WW) xf86CloseConsole: KDSETMODE failed: Bad file descriptor
(WW) xf86CloseConsole: VT_GETMODE failed: Bad file descriptor
Any one has any idea to get with the modular xorg a higher resolution as 800x600 on laptop vga outputs?

Try to add an Identifier line as the error message suggests. An example from my xorg.conf (which may have a lot of unneeded stuff, but it works for me):
Section "Screen"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1920x1200"
Virtual 1920 1200
EndSubSection
Device "Device[0]"
Identifier "Screen[0]"
Monitor "Monitor[0]"
EndSection
This Identifier is referenced in the ServerLayout section of my xorg.conf:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Layout[all]"
InputDevice "Keyboard[0]" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "Mouse[1]" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Mouse[3]" "SendCoreEvents"
Option "Clone" "off"
Option "Xinerama" "off"
Screen "Screen[0]"
EndSection

XORG SUCKS HARD!!!!!!
if i have only the serverflags, monitor and screen section, it works well with higher resolution.
But than, the keyboard layout isn't correct anymore!! so Xorg want it from the xorg.conf too, and no more from the hal/fdi stuff!
so this is my almost complete xorg.conf!!! that is DAMN DAMN F$%K!

So, as you last posts asks no questions, I am assuming everything is solved for you. So closing.
If I was wrong... start a new topic with out the bad language and phrasing a proper question.
