It didn't work on either for 1600x900.  I think trying to set
extended video modes through the vesa bios doesn't work all of the
time even though they are listed by vesa. (at least on the Radeon HD
cards I tested)

What do you mean by "didn't work" - what exactly happens?

Setting the extended mode with the vesa driver results in a
"invalid mode" message on the screen. Verified with two different LCD's
(one at 1440x900 and 1600x900) with a system reboot in between the
monitor change.
