busted randr refresh rate breaks radeon mergedfb

Hi,
I'm running a master server and latest ATI driver, and when I use
mergedfb I'm having trouble getting it to switch modes using randr
1.0, this used to work with the older radeon driver, but some changes
to report a more likely refresh rate seem to have screwed this up..
[root at starflyer xserver]# xrandr
SZ: Pixels Physical Refresh
0 2048 x 768 ( 916mm x 356mm ) 612
*1 2704 x 1050 ( 916mm x 356mm ) *22
is what I get reported, however mode->VRefresh is actually 6073 in both cases.
So when randr -s goes to check the mode list of course 612 doesn't
equal 6073 at any point,
This happens in xf86RandRSetConfig
if (mode->HDisplay == pSize->width &&
mode->VDisplay == pSize->height &&
(rate == 0 || xf86RandRModeRefresh (mode) == rate))
break;
So the rate is 612 and the refresh is 6073 and guess what happens?
This is mainly cause by there being two functions, one DIX and one DDX
xf86RandRModeRefresh (DisplayModePtr *mode)
RRVerticalRefresh (xRRModeInfo *mode)
The RRVerticalRefresh seems to get called by the new randr-1.2 code
when talking to a randr-1.0 driver/server,
/*
* Convert 1.2 monitor data into 1.0 screen data
*/
static RR10DataPtr
RR10GetData (ScreenPtr pScreen, RROutputPtr output)
calls it..
I've no idea who is mainly at fault or what the best way to fix this
regression quickly ..
Suggestions?
Dave.
