Sorry, I did not install all the packages that were built out of the new source. I re-checked because I saw that the radeon module version is still 6.12.2 in X log. Installing the new radeon package resolved the problem. It is true that I technically do not need that large virtual but this is the smallest that is going to work with a 1280x1024 and a 1024x768 display for sure. The resolution I use when the screen is set up properly is 2048x1024 but I must get there somehow, and smaller virtual might make that harder.
