This report is somewhat related to #151459 When starting s-c-display I get no option for the native resolution of my PowerBook. Searched and found the closed upstream bug. Searched further and found, that in the meantime a patch with modelines was added to xorg-x11. Started to test and got a result: Added modelines to /usr/share/rhpl/extramodes and updated the laptop-modes patch for xorg-x11: # 1280x854 @ 60Hz (PowerBook 15in) hsync: 51.96kHz; pclk: 79.81 MHz Modeline "1280x854" 79.81 1280 1296 1408 1536 854 855 858 866 -Hsync -Vsync # 1440x900 @ 60Hz (PowerBook 17in) hsync: 54.7 kHz; pclk: 96.21 MHz Modeline "1440x900" 96.21 1440 1504 1536 1760 900 903 906 912 -Hsync -Vsync The latter one is a result of Google search: http://lists.terrasoftsolutions.com/pipermail/yellowdog-general/2003-October/010307.html. Now the resolution was available with s-c-display, but not when running with --reconfig switch. Finally added "1280x854" to XF86SupportedResolutions() in /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/xf86config.py and got it working (1440x900 is already listed there). Would be nice to get this in.

This should be resolved in rawhide as of s-c-d 1.0.45-1 or later. Please test and reopen if this is still an issue for you.
[frank@notebook ~]$ rpm -q system-config-display system-config-display-1.0.45-1 Still not working. The list now contains 1440x900, but not 1280x854. With --reconfig I get the options 1280x800, 1152x768, 1024x768, 800x600, and 640x480.
Mmm, we should be listing the resolutions advertised by the X server. What does 'xrandr -q' print?
The situation has improved. Here's the output of 'xrandr -q' with up to date Rawhide: SZ: Pixels Physical Refresh *0 1280 x 854 ( 322mm x 221mm ) *60 1 640 x 350 ( 322mm x 221mm ) 60 2 640 x 400 ( 322mm x 221mm ) 60 3 720 x 400 ( 322mm x 221mm ) 60 4 640 x 480 ( 322mm x 221mm ) 60 5 800 x 600 ( 322mm x 221mm ) 60 6 1024 x 768 ( 322mm x 221mm ) 60 7 832 x 624 ( 322mm x 221mm ) 60 8 1152 x 768 ( 322mm x 221mm ) 60 9 1280 x 720 ( 322mm x 221mm ) 60 10 1280 x 800 ( 322mm x 221mm ) 60 11 1280 x 768 ( 322mm x 221mm ) 60 Current rotation - normal Current reflection - none Rotations possible - normal Reflections possible - none The dropdown list now contains exactly these resolutions except the first one, which is the native resolution.
Alright, added 1280x854 and a few others to pyxf86config, which might help matters. Please try pyxf86config 0.3.33-1 and reopen if this is still an issue. Thanks!
I still have this issue with system-config-display-1.0.45-1 (FC6). I seem the same xrandr output as above..
