I'm having trouble also with the Dell 2005FPW on a PowerPC MacMini DVI (ATI Radeon 9200), but not during the installation process (the monitor worked fine with the Flight CD6 installer defaults). I'm having difficulties with xserver-xorg, even after updating Dapper with latest package versions.

With "UseFBDev" enabled, the mode 1680x1050x60Hz is selected but the screen doesn't look fine: there are horitzontal broken lines along the screen (surprisingly, the mouse pointer appears ok, but the rest of the screen isn't).

If "UseFBDev" is disabled, the screen resolution magically becomes 840x1050x60Hz (sic).
