Did that, and I get "mgag200 bpp 32".

I can indeed run Wayland at 1440x900 at 60.
So I think I'm right in saying that my graphics chip can handle
1440x900 at 60 with 32 bits per pixel.
However, while searching /var/log/messages for the bpp output above, I
also found these two lines:
/usr/libexec/gdm-x-session[2366]: (==) modeset(0): Depth 24, (==) framebuffer bpp 32
/usr/libexec/gdm-x-session[2366]: (==) modeset(0): RGB weight 888
in case it makes a difference.
Thanks,
Roger.
