How to set VNC display resolution on F11?

I just installed F11 on an AMD X2 5600+ machine with 4GB and an integrated 
video system, 9100M, to experiment with it. I'm using the 32 bit OS for 
right now since I don't want to deal with issues mixing 32 and 64 bits apps 
and libraries together on one machine.

I tried to setup VNC on the above machine. I used the exact same procedure 
as on another machine I have running F10. The setup on F11, which mostly 
works, except for the remote display resolution. It seems whatever I set in 
the "etc/sysconfig/vncserver" file is ignored by the server. The server 
seems to pick some resolution which does not match the display settings I 
want on the client side. I used the exact same settings from an F10 box 
which seems to work fine. I've also used the same setup on a F8, FC5 and an 
FC3 box too without a problem in the past. Any ideas?
