I have a Dell 2005FPW running at full 1680x1050 resolution running
under FC5

For the record, I opened a bugzilla to send the MonitorDB entries for
several of our newest monitors just a few days ago.  Here they are.
These go in /usr/share/hwdata/MonitorsDB.

This is really helpful. I bought a 2405FPW a few months ago which my wife instantly appropriated for herself. She runs it with a smaller 17" monitor so she has two monitors connected to the same video card. When she wassn't using her machine, I would fire up Fedora Core 4 x86_64 and it recognized the dual monitors but would only run them at 800X600. I then turned on the "Dual Head" feature of the Display Settings applet and this changed xorg.conf in such a way that the X server wouldn't start. I just upgraded her machine to FC5 and restored the backup xorg.conf file so I'm back to 800X600 and 2 monitors. I'm going to try the Nvidia driver and sample with the modelines given above.

Wide monitors are productive for my wife -- she gets a lot more work done. I'm planning to order myself a Dell flat panel for Christmas. My 19" ViewSonic CRT is strictly for the birds. Like the 3 who make up the ViewSonic logo.
