Desktop resolution improper at startup
During boot screen, icons light up properly [Picture1]. After last icon is lit, entire boot screen shifts to the left (Haiku logo is at left edge of screen) [Picture2]. The mouse appears, the hard drive indicator continues for a few seconds as booting completes. The mouse can be moved but is very slow / choppy [Picture3]. Some artifacts from the underlying desktop can be revealed by moving the mouse. The system seems to be responding to keyboard input but without visual reference it is tough to tell what is happening. Booting this system using safe mode graphics at 1024x768x32 brings up a usable system but with vesa mode graphics. This laptop also boots up under BeOS 5.0.3 with Radeon driver with no issues (even dualhead support). There is no way to specify the correct startup resolution for the Radeon driver in Haiku. I have included an output from listdev and the referenced pictures in the above text.

The listdev output was created under BeOS 5.0.3. Let me know if you would rather have the output from Haiku or if any other diagnostic info is needed.
