[wplug] Nvidia on Ubuntu with dual monitors

Hello Folks,

My desktop is running Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit and has installed a Nvidia
Quadro FX 1400.  I am using the Nvidia proprietary driver, version
185.

Attached are two identical Planar PL1910MW LCDs via the DVI interfaces.

The primary monitor DFP-0 is reported as having a native and best fit
resolution of 1680x1050.  The secondary monitor DFP-1 is reported as
1440x900.  Both LCDs are working using these settings.

I am trying to force the resolution of the secondary monitor to
1680x1050 to match that of the primary.  I have tried methods
described on several forums, but nothing has yet worked.

Any ideas as how to get my secondary monitor to match the primary?

Thanks,
Dave
