I'm using kernel 2.6.33-rc2 on a 5200 with two scenns attached.
This gets detected very well:
[    0.901764] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: failed to evaluate _DSM: 5
[    0.902107] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Detected an NV30 generation card
(0x034200a2)
[    0.902191] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Attempting to load BIOS image from
PROM
[    1.026027] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: ... appears to be valid
[    1.026294] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: BMP BIOS found
[    1.026297] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: BMP version 5.38
[    1.026301] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Bios version 04.34.20.18

and 
[    1.352207] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: allocated 1280x1024 fb: 0x9000, bo
f6f50e00
[    1.355869] [drm] DAC-7: set mode 1280x1024 3f
[    1.366246] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Setting dpms mode 0 on vga encoder
(output 0)
[    1.366251] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Output VGA-1 is running on CRTC 0
using output A
[    1.366269] [drm] DAC-8: set mode 1024x768 40
[    1.376641] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Setting dpms mode 0 on vga encoder
(output 1)
[    1.376646] [drm] nouveau 0000:01:00.0: Output DVI-I-1 is running on CRTC 1
using output B

Now I get 
[    1.379072] Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48 
which fits exacly on the smaller screen. 

But on the bigger screen this uses only a part of the console and looks quite
strange. 
The last line is somewhere below the middle of the screen and as well the last
character on the right is not a the right side.
So I assume it uses only the resolution 1024x768 on a 1280x1024 screen.
