Got a working screen via HDMI, but the DVI won't go past 1360x768 (a PackardBell Maestro monitor). Had no issues in Windows 7.
I've tried all the xrandr tricks, see the output below:

I'm using the latest driver from Nvidia (binary, 352.63) because Nouveau would show a black screen on my second monitor.
I got stuck on manually finding/creating a xorg.conf file and adding some monitor hacks, can anyone help me?
