I had been using this mode line along with the vesa driver on previous versions of fedora:
****** Modeline**** "1440x900x60" 108.84 1440 1472 1880 1912 900 918 927 946
*
However with FC9 preview it no longer works and the xserver fails to start complaining "No matching modes". I've also tried using gtf to build a modeline but that doesn't work either. Anyone got a working modeline?

Well, I don't have a working *modeline* - just a lack of one. I used the
stock xorg.conf and it works fine here. What version MBP do you have?

Because in the past it has worked. Which do you think I should use and can you include the xorg.conf. On other thing I might mention is that I'm running Fedora in a Parallels vm not sure if that makes a difference.

Run system-profiler from Terminal, or click on "About This Mac", and
then "More Info".

Why are you using the vesa driver?
Because in the past it has worked. Which do you think I should use and can
you include the xorg.conf. On other thing I might mention is that I'm
running Fedora in a Parallels vm not sure if that makes a difference.
I use the 'vmware' driver on my system since I'm running vmware fusion for that.
I'm not sure if there is a better choice for running on parallels or not.

I'm almost certain you have misdiagnosed the problem. Broadly speaking,
the vesa driver ignores modelines, and always has.
The X log should at least show you what candidate modes are being
considered. It may be that we're throwing away a perfectly valid one.
Comparing the log output between F8 and F9 would probably be
informative.
