the new drivers don't let you name custom mode lines like default ones
are named.

So instead of using "1920x1080", try "My1080" or something...
On top of that, EDID information will by default invalidate modelines.

I highly suggest you, and anyone else having issues with these
drivers, to go to the nvnews forum, for which I posted links. All the
problems I've seen posted here have been discussed there, with
possible fixes.
