Could > it be the case on 5.9.# ? And the last follow up: Definitely. Booting once again with the live image (loading radeon and KMS) gives me 80x25. But when logged out as root and logged in as intaller I get 240x75. So it is not a resolution problem; it is already @ 1920x1200 on vty0. It is root (or any other user I presume) logging in on vty0 and getting 80x25 instead of 240x75 no matter what.
