I am getting limited resolutions too. I am only able to get a max. of
1280x800 on my x1900 using grandr. My monitor is 1920x1200 native. I
can get higher resolutions by playing with the horizontal and vertical
sync ranges in xorg.conf however the default values result in the
limited resolutions.
I wasn't sure if it was due to the incompletedness of R500 or if it is
because of the h/vsync ranges in xorg.conf.
