I did not find the way to get rid of a black stripe on the left side of the screen. Tried all the modelines I could get my hands on on the web to no avail. If anyone has modelines that work without this black stripe, I am interested.

That monitor does not report its capabilities properly.. It is .1 off. :)
Here are the lines from my xorg.conf file that make the differences:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Monitor Vendor" ModelName "LCD Panel 1920x1200" ### Comment all HorizSync and VertSync values to use DDC: HorizSync 31.5 - 90.0 VertRefresh 60.0 - 60.0 Option "dpms" EndSection
Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 Option "ModeValidation" "NoMaxPClkCheck" SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1920x1200" "1680x1050" "1280x800" EndSubSection EndSection
That should do it. The only trick is the NoMaxPClkCheck entry.
This works on mine with the nvidia and nv drivers.
