> Which kernel version?

kernel 2.6.42.12-1.fc15.x86_64

With the problem, I'm cant set resolution higher than 1024x768.
Actually I have solved the problem puting "drm_kms_helper.poll=0" in the kernel options at grub.conf.
REF: (http://lists.debian.org/debian-x/2011/05/msg00522.html)

After I have put the kernel option above, I can set normal resolution 1600X900 and everything works.
