Thanks, for the reply. The problem, unfortunately, is the ModeLine entry. My Screen section does have a Mode entry, referring to the 1680x1050 mode.

Code:

SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
                Modes    "1680x1050"
EndSubSection

But the nvidia driver cannot honor that mode request because it thinks the 1680x1050 mode is invalid. Presumably since Xorg's nv driver can support a 1670x1050 resolution, NVidia's nvidia driver can, too. I just don't know how to determine how to construct a proper ModeLine entry.
