Thanks for the tip. Here is what I found to get 1680x1050 on an Acer
Ferrari 4000 with an ATI X700 videocard running FC5t1/Rawhide x86_64:

In /etc/X11/xorg.conf:

Section "Monitor"
	Identifier   "Monitor0"
	VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
	ModelName    "LCD Panel 1680x1050"
	HorizSync    31.5 - 90.0
	VertRefresh  60.0 - 60.0
	Option	     "dpms"
	Modeline     "1680x1050"  121.00  1680 1704 1792 1876  1050 1051 1054
1065
EndSection

Section "Device"
	Identifier  "Videocard0"
	Driver      "radeon"
	Option      "MonitorLayout" "LVDS, NONE"
	Option      "PanelSize" "1680x1050"
	Option      "AGPMode" "8"
	VendorName  "ATI"
	BoardName   "ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility X700 (PCIE)"
EndSection
