The Fedora Project has pushed out its 9th release. The release announcement is one of those fancy story ones, without much actual information, but an earlier email by Fedora project leader Paul Frields had some more interesting things to say.

Should, and Do are two different things. Autodetection is *not* perfect,
And not due to deficiencies in the detection algorithms. Monitors lie about their capabilities and the manufacturers don't care. They just ship a driver disk (for Windows, of course) with the monitor to "fix" it. EDIDs were never more than a pleasant fantasy.

Bug report this to fedora and xorg upstream. The point of the new Xserver architecture is that you shouldn't need to have a xorg.conf file at all, everything should be autodetected.
