http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=286008#p286008

After update to xf86-video-ati-6.7.192 (then 6.7.194), X starts in very high resolution, it ignores /etc/X11/xorg.conf settings.

xrandr -q output:

VGA-0 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 315mm x 236mm
1280x1024 85.0*+ 84.8 75.0
1600x1200 75.0
1280x960 84.9
1152x864 75.0 74.8
1024x768 84.9 75.1 70.1 60.0 43.5
832x624 74.6

720x400 87.8 70.1
