Workaround found:

Comment out the "Monitor" section in xorg.conf, and the "Monitor" entry in the "Screen" section.
Add "MetaModes" and "Modes lines in the screen section of xorg.conf, like this:

Section "Screen"
    Identifier     "Screen0"
    Device         "Device0"
#    Monitor        "Monitor0"
    Option         "MetaModes" "1680x1050"
    DefaultDepth    24
    SubSection     "Display"
        Depth       24
        Modes      "1680x1050"
    EndSubSection

Note that simply removing xorg.conf does not work, you only get the VESA
driverif xorg.conf is removed.
