Arjan, this guide is outdated and doesn't apply to Hardy or Intrepid (though in some cases, it may work). The primary purpose of this guide was to get users into a graphical session, not enable compiz. You should create a new thread in one of the primary support forums, like Absolute Beginner Talk, General Help, or Desktop Effects & Customization. Good luck.
In the most easy way just type new values on xorg.conf
Make a backup copy first. Then run in terminal (konsole or gnome-terminal) sudo nautilus (or your prefered file browser) and go to /etc/X11/ make copy of xorg.conf find this part
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
Device "Configured Video Device"
Defaultdepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Virtual 640 480
Modes "640x480@60"
EndSubSection
EndSection
and change
Virtual 640 480
Modes "640x480@60"
to
Virtual 1024 768
Modes "1024x768@60"
save changes and resar X (ctrl+alt+shift+backspace) and your screen resolution change
This make the screen resolution from 640x480 to 1024x768, make sure you are writing real values and make a copy of the xorg.conf file again to have another backup
if it doesn't work copy backup to /etc/X11/ again (using windows with ext2 driver if it is possible)

I hate to say it but this and a lot of other problems like this is the reason Linux will never be the more popular OS over Windows or Mac.
Well yea I guess so. But I prefer to use them other, more pleasure way ;)
