I disagree with the "marked as duplicate of bug #136699".

My bug report is not about the VESA driver but instead the xresprobe tool.
xresprobe from the live CD seems to use the VESA driver to retrieve VESA data 
information, but the Xorg.conf file generated for the final desktop will be for 
the ATI driver.
I can understand that there is some technical limitation in VESA that limit 
what the VESA driver can do.
However, as the ATI driver knows ho to set a particular video mode including 
wide screen ones, I expect xresprobe to be able to correctly generate an 
Xorg.conf adapted to my hardware.

So please, have a closer look to the log I reported.

The bug is not in the VESA driver but in xresprobe which does not detect
the useful information from the Xorg.log.

I expect that xresprobe detetect the resolution of my screen from the
Modelines reported in the log.
