in short - I was using standard 16:9 display and everything was fine, but now I connected NEC 4:3 and I’m stuck at 960x540 16:9 (even tho my display is 1280x1024) but I’m blessed with ability of choosing 864x486 16:9 which (don’t) help a lot. Any ideas?

Post the output of xrandr on the terminal.
xrandr output:

so yeah…
@snster ah yeah I got a notification now. Sorry.
So the aspect ratio is wrong for what ever reason.
Did you manually set xorg config files?
Can you post the xorg log?
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
Also please your system info:

Thanks.
Try this:
$CVT=$(cvt 1280 1024 | tail -1 | cut -d ' ' -f2-)
mName=$(echo $CVT | cut -d ' ' -f1)
xrandr --newmode $CVT
xrandr --addmode VGA-0 "$mName"
xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode "$mName"
Please send the logs if this fails.
I have tested this and it has worked for me.
Also, when you add code to your post, wrap it like this:
