if you log to your machine using ssh or other, can you run xrandr to
switch to that resolution ?

when you do:
DISPLAY=:0.0 xrandr

what do you get?

You can manually set the resolution with something like this:

myth at htpc:~$ DISPLAY=:0.0 xrandr -q
Screen 0: minimum 800 x 600, current 1280 x 720, maximum 1920 x 1080
default connected 1280x720+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   1920x1080      50.0*    51.0     52.0     53.0     54.0     55.0
 56.0     57.0
   1280x720       58.0     59.0     60.0
   800x600        61.0

myth at htpc:~$ DISPLAY=:0.0 xrandr --output default --mode "1280x720" -r 59

myth at htpc:~$ DISPLAY=:0.0 xrandr -q
Screen 0: minimum 800 x 600, current 1280 x 720, maximum 1920 x 1080
default connected 1280x720+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   1920x1080      50.0     51.0     52.0     53.0     54.0     55.0
 56.0     57.0
   1280x720       58.0     59.0*    60.0
   800x600        61.0
