Yes it's true. My voodoo velocity 100 and 55k work with wide screen. Now i'm working with 1440x900 with acer AL170W and ssft15.
You have to add the resolution configuration manually (hope it will add in the future). just open 3dfxvs2k.inf and add the following line
HKR,"TIMINGS\1440,900\60Hz",,,"GTF"
HKR,"TIMINGS\1440,900\60Hz",Supported,,"BPP+8+16+32,DDRAW"
or with your case
HKR,"TIMINGS\1680,1050\60Hz",,,"GTF"
HKR,"TIMINGS\1680,1050\60Hz",Supported,,"BPP+8+16+32,DDRAW"
it should work.
