Hello,

I upgraded my system, X crashed, and when it came up it came up with
fbdev driver  rather than Radeon. The resolution is less than optimal:

$ fbset

mode "1024x768"
    geometry 1024 768 1024 768 32
    timings 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
    accel true
    rgba 8/16,8/8,8/0,0/0
endmode

Unfortunaltely, fb.modes lacks standard HD modes such as 1080p, 1440p,
960p?, etc.

This make correcting the problem with fbdev needlessly difficult.

Please add modes for modern 6:9 screens.

Thanks

Michal
