Sorry for my late response. Thank you for the hint, which unfortunately 
didn't work out.
Before I used vs. 3.0.1, I used 3.0, in which 1024x768 worked great. So 
it's not a hardware issue. Other thing is, that after installation I 
could start X without having XF86Config in /etc/X11. I haven't been able 
to locate another XF86Config, so my guess is it gets its settings from 
somewhere else. But where?
