If you look at the site for the monitor

http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19&sku=320-4221&link_number=

it does list cards that are compatible with the monitor.  Albeit windows drivers, or the dell driver.  So if you guys found a way to do this in Linux without haveing to use one of thier specific cards please let me know, or give me a link to read up on how.

Thanks

I have this monitor and could run it with a single link DVI. I just needed
to ensure that the driver allowed this. The current nvidia driver does not
allow me to go the full hog, so I downgraded to version 1.0-7174
which does not impose such a pixel clock restriction.

I use the following mode line:

Modeline "1920x1200" 161.75 1920 2020 2052 2184 1200 1202 1208 1235
