I have a new Acer AL2216W that runs native at 1680x1050. The install is Suse 10 with xorg-x11-6.8.2-100.2. The video card supports 1680x1050
Oh man, I just saw what you are using ... so bad luck. I ordered one of these monitors just 10 minutes before your first post. And I'm running 10.0 on my desktop ...
Ok, lets try to fix it :)
Does your graphics driver provides an option to disable EDID? nVidia's one has it. That way you tell exactly what you want from the driver, and it does not query the monitor for the specs. I had to do this in order to use my 16:9 lcd tv in this max resolution.
Btw, what is the video card. Did you post on their forums? Did you try xorg forums?
Just for what it's worth. There is nothing wrong with using 1680x1050. Your video board and anything else just needs to support it. So you are lucky to have such a nice screen. Enjoy.
