I ran into an issue configuring Linux (Ubuntu specifically) to use the native 1680x1050 resolution of a Dell 2007WFP widescreen monitor. So I came up with a modeline that worked, and thought I'd post it here. Following are the relevant sections my xorg.conf

BTW, I'm using the Ubuntu-provided NVidia drivers, and running a generic FX5200 card. Note that this is for the DVI input only (119mhz). Modelines for the analog input will be different. (Link to Dell's documentation)
