There is still an issue in getting full resolution with nvidia-glx in
Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron":
I found the following minimum entries (highlighted as most indented)
need to be added to /etc/X11/xorg.conf as attached to be able to use
1920*1200 (WUXGA):
Section "Device"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "ModeValidation" "NoMaxPClkCheck"
Option "UseEdidFreqs" "on"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
Modeline "1920x1200_60.00" 154.0 1920 1968 2000 2080 1200 1203 1209
1235 +Hsync -Vsync
Option "DPMS"
EndSection

modules-2.6.20/+bug/111894 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20/+bug/94671 seem related as regards the
resolution, but given the number of bugs reported regarding nvidia-glx,
I am not sure which are the "primary" ones being worked on.
The DPMS entry does not seem to be present by default, preventing the
monitor from ever going into power-saving mode, hence I also list it
among the required additions, while not knowing exactly where to report
its absence as a separate issue.
