Its really interesting that you said that because it prodded me to look at the output for nouveau and I found its very verbose in this regard. Much better than the nvidia driver. Here is a pertinent snippet. None of the EDID info goes past 1920x1200, which is the maximum resolution that I am attaining. This was run with the monitor connected to the HDMI port, which Dell says has a limit of... 1920x1200. I'll connect to the DVI port and rerun it.
