Apple Cinema 20" - won't go 1680x1050!


Hello everyone and happy holidays,

I recently got a sweet 20" Apple Cinema Display (1680x1050 Widescreen) from ebay and it has a higher resolution than my old Norcent LCD 19 inch (1280x1024 not-wide/square) and I edited my (generic nvidia) xorg.conf file like I did with the norcent and kde still doesn't have the 1680x1050 option here's my xorg.conf file.
THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCED!

Code:
