When I boot with the kernels 1547 or 1549 and I get to the

continues to boot normaly an as soon as XOrg comes up everything works
fine. When I shut down the machine again and it goes back to text mode I
get the signal frequency out of range error by my monitor again.
Kernel 1530 did not show this behaviour (but does no longer work for me
since USB and network devices no longer work after the latest rawhide updates).
Yep, same thing seen here. I believe it has been mentioned on the
beta-list (I brought this up, although not the out of frequency part but
could be related), and might be due to kernel fb modules being
loaded/unloaded, which Bill Nottingham says due to initscripts/whatever
loading them and shouldn't.
Maybe Bill or DaveJ will chime in about it.
BTW, this is on a fairly less than year old machine, running PIV 2.8Ghz
with ATI Radeon 9200 along with KDS 9 series monitor.
