Some Thinkpads with Radeon video cards have a suspend issue that requires
loading the radeonfb kernel module in the initrd.  When this happens, the
radeon xorg driver refuses to display at any resolution other than
640x480.  Everything works normally (except for the suspend problem) when
the radeonfb is not loaded.

Anyone else seeing this?  Any solution?  Is it an xorg bug or a kernel
bug?

I get 800x600 as well on a R51 but nothing higher.

Actually found the solution, which is posted here: http://www.ces.clemson.edu/linux/fc6_setup.shtml#radeon

Add |Option "MergedFB" "Off"| to the video card's Device section of xorg.conf.
