I'm having some difficulty here, and if anyone has some insight or input, I would REALLY appreciate it.. Here's the problem:

Running a 17" KDS LCD on my computer, with a native resolution of 1280x1024 (5:4 AR). I can't get Mint 9 to recognize it. Best I can get is 1152x864. I have tried everything I can see on google, and the Ubuntu forums (Mint is based on Ubuntu), using xrandr and cvt to get the modelines for xorg.conf, and nothing seems to work. I cannot get my monitor to 1280x1024.

On a previous install, I had this res, but it won't go this time. Running on an GeForce 7100 (onboard) using version 195 of the nVidia driver. (Latest that installed from the Mint hardware drivers install.)

Any help?! Please?!
