There's a program called gVidChanger in the GNOME software map...
http://www.gnome.org/applist/view.phtml?name=gVidChanger

Quoting from that page:
    gVidChanger is a GTK applet to quickly and easily change video
    resolutions in X.

I haven't tried this program yet but there's a stable source URL so
it may help those users who don't want (or know how) to configure
X.
