But my display is a 2005FPW and video board is i915.
Let me know if that is of interest to you. I used 915resolution.

I did not find the way to get rid of a black stripe on the left side
of the screen. Tried all the modelines I could get my hands on on the
web to no avail. If anyone has modelines that work without this black
stripe, I am interested.

That monitor does not report its capabilities properly.. It is .1 off. :)

Here are the lines from my xorg.conf file that make the differences:

Section "Monitor"

       Identifier   "Monitor0"
       VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
       ModelName    "LCD Panel 1920x1200"
### Comment all HorizSync and VertSync values to use DDC:
       HorizSync    31.5 - 90.0
       VertRefresh  60.0 - 60.0
       Option      "dpms"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
       Identifier "Screen0"
       Device     "Videocard0"
       Monitor    "Monitor0"
       DefaultDepth     24
       Option      "ModeValidation" "NoMaxPClkCheck"
       SubSection "Display"
               Viewport   0 0
               Depth     24
               Modes    "1920x1200" "1680x1050" "1280x800"
       EndSubSection
EndSection

That should do it.
The only trick is the NoMaxPClkCheck entry.

This works on mine with the nvidia and nv drivers.
