I'd like to report a similar issues (again with the ATI 2600XT HD) video card on both Kubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty) and Kubuntu 9.10 (Karmic). This issue is seen when using the fglrx drivers.
After installing and running aticonfig, I get an initial correct resolution of 1920x1080 (this is for a media center where the display is a 1080p LCD TV). On reboot, the resolution is completely off, I can barely use the screen (it seems to default to a 4:3 ratio, but I can't tell what the resolution is, probably 1024x768 or something similar), and I can't use the settings panel to change it back to 1920x1080 (that option doesn't exist). To fix this problem, I have to copy back an original unconfigured xorg file, run aticonfig --initial, and reboot. This gets the resolution back to the correct 1920x1080. This is seen on fresh installs of both kubuntu karmic (fully upgraded as of 12/17/2009) and jaunty (upgraded as of 10/30/2009). The fglrx drivers are those from the default repositories. I've been seeing this issue for about 8 months, so it would be great to know what's going on. Let me know if there's any other information I can provide.
