This is probably because you’ve got kernel mode-setting turned on. The graphics mode setting (including the resolution) happens very early on in the boot sequence, before / is mounted. So it can’t read your xorg.conf file. I’m in a very similar situation, and filed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=512602 over a month ago. For the time being, live with 1280x1024 or put nomodeset into the kernel command line (in grub) – unless anyone knows of a way of configuring KMS resolution from within grub?
