I would start by keeping things as simple as possible. Based on the
kernel you are running, I'm assuming that you are running Squeeze.
Use an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file that looks like this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
Driver "nvidia"
EndSection
Just those four lines are all that should be necessary.
If that doesn't work, post the contents of Xorg.0.log from that
start-up.
I would be surprised if any TFT monitor does not support EDID.
EDID came out in 1994, and virtually all monitors manufactured
since then have it.
