Hm. The logfile looks good. The mode is successfully set. You sure you
haven't tried to auto-calibrate your monitor after connecting it?

Can you provide a screenshot with a camera of this?
Just for the record. I got alot of help on IRC. And the problem is the
monitor be really picky about the modes.

It worked right away with:
xrandr --output VGA_1 --mode 1680x1050 _--rate 60_"

To have this configured statically one can add to xorg.conf the following:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "External"
Modeline "1680x1050_60.00" 146.25 1680 1784 1960 2240 1050 1053
1059 1089 -hsync +vsync
Option "PreferredMode" "1680x1050_60.00"
EndSection

It is working now. Thanks everybody!
