>I had a problem with 1680x1050 a few days ago, too. What you need in the

I tried, but i does not seem to work. I does not crash but I have no way of 
chossing this display. When I go to System->Preference->Display the only 
resolution it offers are these and I don't know why
"1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
