I'm like you in that if I had your problem I don't know if I could 
effectively solve this problem. From your monitor's specs everything 
looks good to me but I have one question. From your specs I don't know 
if your DisplaySize of 300 230 is correct.

I used the following command:

$ xdpyinfo | grep dimensions
  dimensions:  1024x768 pixels (361x271 millimeters)

My DisplaySize is 360 270. I calculate that the 360mm is about 14.1" and 
the 270mm is about 10.6". The viewing dimensions of my monitor is close 
to 14.1"x10.6". If I'm correct then your monitor's viewing dimensions 
should be about 11.8"x9.1" if the DisplaySize 300 230 is correct. I 
converted to inches by multiplying by 0.03937.  Someone else would have 
to tell you how to make changes if that's necessary. I'm sure some 
expert will correct me if this is wrong!

Try the following command:
$ xdpyinfo -ext all
