The modes which xorg null's out are the ones your hardware cannot support.= =20 Only now did I notice that your laptop's native resolution is 1366x768. Tha= t=20 is 768 pixels vertical. You physically cannot have 1024 pixels. Yet you wri= te=20 that you managed to force it once. Are you sure that was it? Anyway, I don't think you can use such a mode on your laptop. Your projecto= r=20 should work fine of course, but without clone mode. Another possibility would be having 1280x1024 workspace, which should displ= ay=20 properly on the projector, but using a lower resolution on the laptop, whic= h=20 should behave like zooming because the workspace is bigger. I don't know ho= w=20 to do this off the top of my head, but it should be in the man pages.
