Actually i just realized that my post didnt answer your question.
Sorry i should read more carefully.
But i use the opportunity and ask if someone got the ati framebuffer, only for 
the console, to work at 1400x1050 (on an ati rage mobility P/M).
cause if i use the vesa framebuffer at 1280x1024 (or lower) my Xserver will 
start but only very messy and unusable (even if i use ati2 X module)
That means i cant use a framebuffer console at the same time with xfree.
But i would need it cause the tiny screen in the middle of my display running 
a standart console is rather frustrating.
I hope someone understands my confused words =) (had a hard day)
Any help welcome.
regards 
Florian
