Hi,

on my HP zd7000 notebook the monitor has a resolution of 1440x900 and 
has an nvidia chip on the grafic-card. (sorry I can't post xorg.conf at 
the moment, I don't have this machine here).

But the main thing I want to say: with the nvidia-driver I only get a 
very messy resulutions on that wide-screen-monitor, so I use nv as the 
driver. Maybe you can check that one out:

Instead of:

try this:

Section "Device" 
	Identifier  "Videocard0"
	Driver      "nv"
	VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
	BoardName   "NVIDIA GeForce 4 (generic)"
EndSection


Hope that works
Markus
