Comment(by gerald.zajac):

 Replying to [comment:1 gerald.zajac]:
 > I wrote the ATI video driver, and have an IBM Thinkpad A22p which has
 the same video chip that you have on your computer;  however, the display
 on the A22p is 1600 x 1200.  Nevertheless, I'm unable to duplicate your
 problem on the A22p.  That is, I can successfully set resolution 1280x1024
 in all color depths (8, 15, 16,& 32 bpp) on my computer.
 >
 > Have you tried any color depths other than 15 bpp?  Have you looked at
 the beginning of the syslog where the VESA modes are listed to see if 1280
 x 1024 x 15 is listed there?  The ATI driver uses the VESA code to set the
 mode when the laptop's display is the active display, and uses it's own
 code when an external display is the active display.

 > What is the make and model of your laptop computer?

 BTW, I used the same revision (r34909) for my testing.
