I would hate to have to modify the xorg.conf file

Why? To fix this, you'll either modify it manually, or using something like xorgconfig.
With an LCD, there's little point in having all those options. They are best at their native resolution.
I would use gtf to generate ONE modeline (for 60Hz). Here's what it gives me:
Modeline "1680x1050_60
.00" 147.14 1680 1784 1968 2256 1050 1051 1054 1087 -HSync +Vsync
One article I found recommends editing out the stuff in bold.....
Here's how your xorg.conf might wind up (extra junk removed)
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor[0]"
ModelName "xxx"
VendorName "yyy"
Modeline "1680x1050_60" 147.14 1680 1784 1968 2256 1050 1051 1054 1087 -HSync +Vsync
Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1680x1050_60"
EndSubSection
<other stuff>
EndSection
(Delete Section "Modes")
