Can you verify if this is the case?  Insert a bunch of printk's in and
around this line "if (node == pcp->prom_node) {" in
atyfb_setup_sparc().  For the 2.6.8 kernel, this line is in
atyfb_init().
Tested that and output is identical for both. That condition you cite is
true for both kernels and the resolutions are retrieved from prom:
atyfb (fjp): crtc.vxres 1152
atyfb (fjp): crtc.vyres 900

As a workaround, a boot option can be added for csync, hsync and vsync.
Hmm. I looked for the syntax for that, but can't find it.
I tried
  video=atyfb:1024x768@70,csync:1
and
  video=atyfb:1024x768@70,csync:high
but both failed miserably.
(I have checked that csync is sufficient to activate the monitor.)
Nope, those are proposed options.  If nobody disagrees, I can easily add
this for atyfb.
