well, your xorg.conf has to support that modeline. this is the modeline to use for 1440x900@60hz with dot clock freq 108.4 mhz:
Code:
Modeline "1440x900@60" 108.84 1440 1472 1880 1912 900 918 927 946
now to use this modeline your monitor edid or you monitor section must allow it's use.
something similar to the following options have to be present in your section monitor:
Code:
HorizSync xx - xx VertRefresh xx - xx
here is the link for an xfree86 modeline generator, that should be ok also for xorg.
for the resolution issue that some have had i think that this error in the reading of the vertrefresh may lead to fglrx not enabling the modeline.
if anyone has problems you could try out setting the vertrefresh max to allow the use of the resolution according to one generated by the modeline generator, but remember that IF YOU USE IT AND THIS BREAKS YOUR MONITOR I'M NOT TO BE CONSIDERED RESPONSIBLE. all i do is trying to help out with resolving the problem, but if you fell like not doing it just don't do it. wait for some user that has similar problems and is willing to try it out and see if it works.
