The problem is that the intel graphic bios does not report the 16:10 modes.
With the G945 chipset you cant try the resolution915 package to set the
correct resolution. Another possibility can be the i810-modesetting driver
from unstable.
Since I have a G965 I couldn't use any of theses, so I have not tested them. I
have backported the current version of the intel modesetting driver (and the
current intel agp driver). With these backported drivers I am successfully
running 1920X1200.
