[resolution doesn't change, console uses the left right 800x600 portion
of the screen]
# fbset -g 1024 768 1024 768 24
[text changes to multicolored with light violet tint, console uses the
left 75% portion of the screen, characters are 75% of normal width]
# fbset -g 1024 768 1024 768 16
[text color changes to magenta, console uses the 50% left portion of
the screen, characters are 50% of normal width]
# fbset -g 1024 768 1024 768 8
[text changes to multicolored with yellow tint, console uses the left
25% portion of the screen, characters are 25% of normal width]
# fbset -g 1024 768 1024 768 32
[restores the initial state]

The above commands produce no dmesg output.
Please provide a way to change the resolution of the console, either on
the radeon module load or dynamically (preferably both).
