[Newbie]Samsung SyncMaster 240T config problem

I'm having a bear of a time configuring my new SyncMaster 240T.  I am 
running Debian woody with an Nvidia Quadro2 Pro graphics card.  When I 
run under Win XP, it works fine, so I know this isn't a hardware 
incompatibility.  The problem is that I have black bars on the left and 
right of my screen.  Even Xvidtune can't manage it.  Nor could the 
modeline calculator I found at 
http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl.  

The screen is 1920 by 1200 (i.e. whopping big) with a strange ratio of 
16:10.  It has a max pixel clock of 350 MHz.

Harry ten Berge, from the Netherlands was very kind in sending me his 
Suse info.  Here is what he sent:

Samsung:SYNCMASTER 240T {
	DDC=SAM4254
	Hsync=30-93
	Vsync=56-85
}

Modeline "1920x1200" 254.59 1920 1956 2404 2740 1200 1308 1324 1373

That modeline didn't work for me.  How do I use the DDC info in 
XF86Config-4 ?

I tweaked the modeline as much as I could with xvidtune.  Here is what I 
have in my XF86Config-4  file:

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier    "Generic Monitor"
    HorizSync    30-93
    VertRefresh    56-85
    Option        "DPMS"
    Modeline    "1920x1200@60"   210.68   1920 2000 2752 2784   1200 
1224 1236 1261
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier    "Default Screen"
    Device        "Generic Video Card"
    Monitor        "Generic Monitor"
    DefaultDepth    24
    SubSection "Display"
        Depth        1
        Modes        "1920x1200"
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
        Depth        4
        Modes        "1920x1200"
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
        Depth        8
        Modes        "1920x1200"
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
        Depth        15
        Modes        "1920x1200"
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
        Depth        16
        Modes        "1920x1200"
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
        Depth        24
        Modes        "1920x1200@60"
    EndSubSection
EndSection



Thank you very much for your help,

Carlo
