I'm not sure but I think it uses xrandr to query what modes are
available. Which version of Ubuntu are you running when you tried
this ? What kind of monitor are you using ?

vesa is a generic driver. You can try following, after stopping gdm, and
wiping off xorg.conf:
1. Login to a TTY (using Ctrl-Alt-F1).
2. Execute following in one shot at your TTY.
abbe [~] chateau $ Xorg & ; sleep 5 ; export DISPLAY=:0 ; xrandr
>xrandr-output.txt ; killall Xorg
3. Now, back at TTY, xrandr-output.txt contains output of xrandr.
You can also execute 'ddcprobe' in a root shell, to get list of
resolutions, refresh rates supported by your monitor. ddcprobe doesn't need X
running.
