   Yes!!
    It has been broken for a while, but livna have the 8.1 fglrx driver rpms out today, and 1400x1050 is back, at least on Dell. There is a note in ATI/AMD's release notes to the effect it is a fixed bug.

There are still no desktop effects. Does anyone know about that? If I type:
compiz-manager
I get:
 Checking for Xgl: not present.
No whitelisted driver found
aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity Odd - I expected aiglx. I change compiz-manager to whitelist "fglrx", but get:

   Checking for Xgl: not present.
Detected PCI ID for VGA: 01:00.0 0300: 1002:7183 (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Checking for texture_from_pixmap: not present. Trying again with indirect rendering:
Checking for texture_from_pixmap: not present. aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity

Which is strange, because:
glxinfo | grep pixma

    GLX_ARB_multisample, GLX_EXT_import_context,
GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap, 
    GLX_SGIX_visual_select_group, GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap

  Any ideas anyone?
