Ok, so I guess with that much ram (128M):
(II) RADEON(0): Generation 2 PCI interface, using max accessible memory
(II) RADEON(0): Detected total video RAM=131072K, accessible=262144K (PCI BAR=262144K)
(--) RADEON(0): Mapped VideoRAM: 131072 kByte (128 bit DDR SDRAM)

I should have at least 1920x1200 by default (that's between 6M and 8M) ?
