I tried changing the resolution to fit the monitor 16:9.
The margins are contained in the video as 4:3 but remain 2 black bands left and right side
Attach file xorg.config the video is a Samsung SyncMaster 2043, could be a problem with the video card? (82865G Integrated Graphics Controller)

Bumping this because I have the same problem. I have Samsung SyncMaster B2030 and can't get 1600x900 resolution.

I've tried changing xorg.config but it still doesn't display properly. There is no problem with the video card because it displays perfectly in Windows.

The best I can get is using xvesa at with a different resolution (can't remember the resolution and I'm in Windows now so can't check).

My video card is an NVIDIA GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a.
