Setting screen resolution with DU4.0D and S3 Trio

I just upgraded my DEC 2100 from 3.2D-1 to 4.0D. Suddenly I am stuck
with 1024x768 resolution.

With 3.2D-1 I would set the resolution with "-screen0 1280 -vsync 72"
options on the command starting Xdec.

I set it up the same way by editing /etc/dt/Xservers, but the result
was a blank screen for several minutes before Xdec simply died. The
man page lists the -screen option, but says nothing about -vsync.

Does anyone know how to make this work? 1024x768 is painful
(especially since my other system is 1600x1200).
