I corrected the monitor specs first, rebooted. No change. Then I changed the driver to nv as Barry suggested, and resolution settings look great. Now, do I leave it that way? I want to make sure I'm getting the full performance out of my nvidia card.
It's a e-GeForce FX 5700LE, 256MB DDR AGP in my xorg.conf, I notice that the line Boardname is "Unknown Board". Does that matter, or is it just informational?
