Hi,

booting 2.6.36-rc2-git4 (commit
d4348c678977c7093438bbbf2067c49396ae941b) results in a screen
resolution of 1024x768 instead of 1680x1050. It works fine with
2.6.35.2.

The framebuffer console uses the correct resolution, but only uses a
part of the screen for text output. Xorg output looks distorted.

Xorg log is attached.

$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 4096 x 4096
