I booted the livecd, and installed the ati deb, then restarted X, still
no widescreen resolutions listed. So then I added the modelines in
xorg.conf and restarted X, still no luck. The xrandr commands still work
with hardy, but I still have to wait for the desktop to load and then
manually change res.

pfrancav, there's an issue with Ati's fglrx driver that displays with a
native 1680x1050 resolution might be limited to 1280x1024. See the
release notes
