the desired resolution should be 1280x1020 (19 inch). Your X config needs a
modeline for that resolution.
Look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
and verify that valid modelines are present.
Your driver is built from a shell script? or did you grab an RPM.
Get a root prompt and type
#nvidia-<tab>
play around with any nvidia-settings
---------- snip xorg.conf -----------
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024"
EndSubSection
EndSection
