As of the last couple of days, after updating packages, it appears that the screen resolution of 1024x768 is set automatically when X starts. So this fix has been checked in to the repositories.
Also, switching to/from text modes seems to work. However:
There is an oddity about switching back from a text console to X: using Alt-F7 just switches to a blank screen with "[ OK ]" in the upper-right corner, while Alt-F8 switches back to X. This is new behavior (to me).
