I have a HP Proliant ML 370 G5 server with ATI ES1000 PCI video card with Linux Mandriva 2008.1 installed on. Then I have a 1280x1024 Belinea Monitor which is correctly configured in xorg (I tried either PnP and direct frequency interval that work correcty with other PC). If I use 'ati' driver I can get 1280x1024 resolution but, indipendently from resolution, colors is overexposed making graphics unusable. If i use 'vesa' driver I can get only 1024x768. The strange thing is that if I start X using 'ati' driver, then I exit from X and I enter again with 'vesa' driver, I get 1280x1024. It seems that RAMDAC on card gets reprogrammed by 'ati' driver. The problem is that, rebooting, the 'vesa' resolution falls back to 1024x768. LAST NOTE: Using 'vesa' driver PnP doesn't work (monitor-edid command reply nothing!). Any solution or workaround?
Please attach your xorg log and config.

Other notes... The colors are not exactly overexposed; they seems altered: yellow is ok but green is white. If I switch on text console (CRTL-ALT-F1), the colors are very dark and green characters are purple!
You are using a really old version of the driver. This should be fixed in the xf86-video-ati 6.12.4 or git master.
