Gee, Sony make life fun don't they! On initial inspection it appears that you have one of those laptops where we have to fetch the EDID for the panel from ACPI. However, we never hit that codepath because your GPU/VBIOS have been constructed in such a way that an "older" method of detecting the panel mode succeeded, but contains an invalid resolution for your panel. I'll look at providing a fix for this soon.
Can you give this kernel build a try: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2321029
I've now tried out the new kernel, and I've got some good and bad news :-) The good news is that the resolution seems to have been detected correctly. However, there were two kernel oopses as soon as gdm was showing. I will attach the backtraces. I'm unsure whether they are related to the graphics stuff. Many thanks so far!

I don't believe they're related to nouveau, however, it is possible if something really bad is going on. Can you install 2.6.34.1-11.fc13 from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=183346 (same version as the scratch build above, but without the additional fixes) and see if you still get the oops?
Things seem to be a little more complicated... With the kernel from comment 7, the oopses from comments 5 and 6 do not occur. With the vesa driver, everything works fine. However, with nouveau I repeatedly get the following oops: kernel: idr_remove called for id=0 which is not allocated. kernel: Pid: 1669, comm: Xorg Not tainted 2.6.34.1-11.fc13.x86_64 #1 kernel: Call Trace: kernel: [<ffffffff8120c884>] idr_remove+0x108/0x17a kernel: [<ffffffff8144b607>] ? mutex_lock+0x29/0x50 kernel: [<ffffffffa03b5054>] drm_mode_object_put+0x38/0x48 [drm] kernel: [<ffffffffa03b5242>] drm_mode_destroy+0x1a/0x26 [drm] kernel: [<ffffffffa042552a>] nouveau_connector_get_modes+0x42/0x2de [nouveau] kernel: [<ffffffffa0426215>] ? nouveau_connector_detect_lvds+0x17d/0x18f [nouveau] kernel: [<ffffffffa03e7c54>] drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes+0x10d/0x28c [drm_kms_helper] kernel: [<ffffffffa03b706f>] drm_mode_getconnector+0xf5/0x39e [drm] kernel: [<ffffffffa03ac5df>] drm_ioctl+0x259/0x36a [drm] kernel: [<ffffffffa03b6f7a>] ? drm_mode_getconnector+0x0/0x39e [drm] kernel: [<ffffffff8111a703>] vfs_ioctl+0x32/0xa6 kernel: [<ffffffff8111ac76>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x483/0x4c9 kernel: [<ffffffff8110d6c3>] ? fsnotify_access+0x6c/0x74 kernel: [<ffffffff8111ad12>] sys_ioctl+0x56/0x79 kernel: [<ffffffff81009c72>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

Unfortunately, kernel 2.6.34.2-34.fc13 doesn't seem to work well at all. With mode setting enabled, the system freezes completely as soon as gdm is showing. Without mode setting, the system boots fine but nouveau doesn't seem to detect the card. In /var/log/messages the following lines appear: kernel: [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Detected an NV50 generation card (0x0a5480a2) kernel: [drm] Initialized nouveau 0.0.16 20090420 for 0000:01:00.0 on minor 0 kernel: [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: called without init The X server then seems to fall back to the vesa driver. I'm attaching a new xorg log file.

Nouveau can not work without KMS anymore, that's why it falls back to vesa. If you can get a kernel log from after the freeze, we can try and find what's happening. The good news is nouveau finds your resolution now, and other reporters with these laptops say it works, so there's likely something else wrong too.
Created attachment 437564 [details] Kernel oops after X server startup on kernel 2.6.34.2-34 Thanks for the info. I've managed now to obtain a kernel backtrace after the X server freeze. This results from booting in mode 3 and then launching the X server manually. It freezes as soon it has cleared the screen and the screen then remains blank.
Do you have an X log that goes with that at all?
Created attachment 437811 [details] startx output No, the X log is empty and the output from 'startx' doesn't show any error messages. Surprisingly, the X server also started up correctly once, but when I closed it, it hang again.

Wow, impressive. First we get this error, followed by a second similar EDID error.

Then we get an oops in the SLUB allocator, with a traceback showing the block subsystem is trying to allocate memory, that has an impossible address in RBX: mov (%rbx,%rax,1),%rax RBX: 6544206169646976 == "eD aidiv" But that's "vidia De" backwards. So somehow that string has corrupted the slab.
Assuming it completes, here's a kernel scratch build which may fix the problem, it's the only potential issue I can see. I can't test myself unfortunately, I don't have the hardware. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2450482

Created attachment 446731 [details] X server log for kernel 2.6.34.5-44.fc13.x86_64 New problem with this kernel is that Nouveau Gallium 3d is not working, only software 3d acceleration. Note: I have mesa-dri-drivers-experimental installed and with kernel 2.6.33.3-85.fc13.x86_64 hardware 3d acceleration is working without problems but with wrong screen resolution.
Thanks for letting me know, I'll push a proper update into the kernel today then. Yes, there's a very good reason for you getting no acceleration. On certain chips there's a random, but very well known hang that we haven't been able to resolve yet. Acceleration has been disabled by default for now. You can reenable with "nouveau.noaccel=0" in your boot options. However, it's very likely you'll experience random hangs as a result.
