I don't want to divert the main issue in this thread. To be specific
about #538761, there are two facts:

1. I used to have higher resolutions in Fedora 10 and 11 on the
__same__ hardware
2. I was able to get 1024*768 in kernel-2.6.31.6-147.fc12(after
reporting this issue in bugzilla) and all the later versions till
2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.x86_64 has default resolution 800*600
