FC6 radeonfb and radeon xorg conflict

Some Thinkpads with Radeon video cards have a suspend issue that requires 
loading the radeonfb kernel module in the initrd.  When this happens, the 
radeon xorg driver refuses to display at any resolution other than 
640x480.  Everything works normally (except for the suspend problem) when 
the radeonfb is not loaded.

Anyone else seeing this?  Any solution?  Is it an xorg bug or a kernel 
bug?

TIA.
