Two things to add. I tried commenting out the lines on a laptop with 
radeon and am able to get the proper resolution. The second point is 
that the change was pushed into the xorg-x11 updates for FC5.

If you are having issues with not being able to get the proper 
resolution, maybe commenting out the lines as in the example linked to 
above would help.
