very high resolution after update

I just finished update after 2-weeks holiday, and... X start it very high resolution: 2048x1536. I have 1024x768 in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf, log shows that this file is used. How it is possible that higher mode is initialized? I use Linux for about 10 years but it's first time I see something like this.

PS. this is probably related to xf86-video-ati update, I use Radeon 9800 Pro.

Re: very high resolution after update

does it happen in the login page? cuz i have the same problem (my monitor doesnt even show image because of the ress being so high)
but i have a x1650pro so shouldnt be a card problem..
