I really don't think this problem is related to the nouveau driver, because I get the same symptoms using the binary nVidia drivers. I have also connected the monitor to a system running Hardy LTS on the VIA chipset (X.Org X Server 1.4.0.90 and CHROME driver). The EDID data looks the same and is interpreted very similarly. The display adapter can't do 2048x1152, but 1680x1...@60hz was possible. As expected, the desktop displayed with broad black margins on all 4 sides, BUT the desktop image is too wide - it is properly aligned on the left margin although quite a lot (more than 10mm) is clipped off at the right margin.
