(Get the code!)

Those warnings sound suspicious.
Anyway, the problem seems to be coming in at this line:
(WW) VESA(0): Unable to estimate virtual size
So my guess is that the monitor EDID is either wrong or not being parsed correctly by the X server.
Can you collect the following so we can get a better view of what's in the EDID?
* ddcprobe
* get-edid > edid.dat
* get-edid | parse-edid
* xrandr --verbose
The last one I think requires the X server to be running so may not be possible to get.
You should also try specifying the HorizSync and VertRefresh ranges explicitly in the xorg.conf, and perhaps the resolutions as well (it may be necessary to use the IgnoreEDID option, although I don't know if that option is available for vesa so may require some experimentation.)
