After what I thought I remembered about earlier discussion, I was surprised to discover your new L1942PK turned out to not be a widescreen. :-)
Before SaX2 was dropped after 11.2, EDID wasn't so crucial as it seems to have become since 11.3 and KMS kernels. If EDID failed, it was a simple matter to use SaX2 to set up xorg.conf to produce desired results.
Two CLI apps you need to remember: xvidtune (is still your best friend :) An oldie, but a goodie. You can fine tune and dump the xorg information you need. Also don't forget: gtf (general timing frequency [usage: gtf x y refresh]) This will create you xorg modeline you can use on any monitor in lieu of EDID information. -- David C.
