I'm no expert on nvidia. I see in the log that no valid 1680x1050 mode
was found, but have no idea why.

Just as a test, I suggest you manually edit xorg.conf and substitute in
the line above "nv" for "nvidia" and see if 1680x1050 works.

I bought

 about two months ago, and it works with every video card I've tried
just fine in factory and 10.0.
