I just wanted to say thank you for all your info!
between this and couple other site iv managed to get my setup running at 1360x768.... i can tell you it took some tinkering! (only been using linux for a few days)
im using onboard nvidia gforce 7025/nforce 630a and yes this was connected to my 32LG3000 via VGA running nvidia driver version 302.17 and im using ubuntu 10.04.
like some of the others i had MASSIVE overpan/scan or what ever ya call it so this is my xorg.conf settings..........

i dont know if this will help anyone else out due to me using vga and only inputting enough info for 1 modeline
also one last thing i KNOW my modeline is NOT QUITE right as thats the numbers for the hmdi modeline but i thought sod it i will give it a try and it works, but if anyone can see and mistakes or anything that does not need to be included then please please let me know

many thanks again
