Environment:
Fedora 8
xorg-x11-drv-nv-2.1.6-1.fc8
Nvidia NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] (rev a1) connected with
digital to analog converter (supplied by card vendor) to Compaq KVM
(don't know exact model) to (analog to analog) Dell FP2405FPW LCD monitor.
This solved my problem.
On FC4 everything was working properly.
On F8 i tried nvidia proprietary driver and it worked only in 1920x1080.
With nv driver and this setup i got 1920x1200 back again :-)
