Not sure where to report this problem (or what I should be looking

but when booting any of the 3.15 kernels, kernel-modesetting fails and X
comes up with a resolution of 1024x768, rather than the 1680x1050
resolution specified in my xorg.conf file. xorg.conf is necessary because
my monitor does not emit a proper EDID.
~$ uname -r

Reverting to kernel -3.13.7-200.fc20.x86_64 avoids the problem (and
problems I've been having with firefox-28 locking up with 3.14 kernels).

Dump the <outputname> via 'xrandr',
e.g. VGA-0, DVI-I-1, DVI-D-2, HDMI-A-3, etc.
man 5 xorg.conf
man 1 xrandr
