Maybe I am asking too much, but I'd like to try to find a way to slip the xrandr command in after X has started and before the GUI login splash screen happens so that, hopefully, things will be 1680x1050 at that point and I won't have do it on a per user basis (quick reading of Marko's post made it appear that way, I'd be happy to be corrected).
