Can Omega Drivers push an old video card to widescreen resolutions?

Will "Omega Drivers" allow my ATI Radeon Mobility M6 card to drive a widescreen display?

I use an external monitor plugged into a notebook (Compaq Evo N410C) as my home computer. Lately I've been watching a lot of videos on it, and I'm starting to crave a widescreen LCD to replace my antiquated and space-hogging 17" CRT. But I don't think the video card I've got will drive a widescreen display natively. I have read that the "Omega Drivers" can extend the capabilities of ATI cards. Does anyone have experience using these drivers to push an older video card to widescreen resolutions?
