I had perhaps a similar problem.  AMD64 GeForce7300 working fine in
Gutsy broke on upgrade to Hardy.  Could only get 640x480 and 800x600
resolutions.  Now, before I knew what was wrong I tried many many
things, so perhaps several variables were in play here, but in the end
the way I fixed it was commenting out the "Device" and "Monitor"
sections from my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.  They were just dummy sections
anyway:

#Section "Device"
#       Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
#EndSection

#Section "Monitor"
#       Identifier      "Configured Monitor"
#EndSection

After I did this, it seems that Hardy looked for the EDID info, found
everything fine and I was on my way.  But for some reason, during the
upgrade it may have added those sections (or they got added in my post-
install flailing to fix the problem).
