New xorg.conf has HorizSync and VertRefresh entries. Hopefully this
should solve the low resolution problem. Opening and final comments were
about resolution being too low so we shall consider that to be this bug
kripkenstein:
Unless you can report whether the problem is still here (by rebooting a few
times and seeing of the problem occurs) this bug is going to have to be
closed...

Ok, I understand.
Well, I tried it now, and it seems fine, not sure what did the trick
though. So I guess this bug can be closed.
I attach my current, final, xorg.conf, perhaps someone will want to
compare it to my old nonworking versions if they find they have a
similar problem or something
Sorry for not replying earlier. Basically my 'solution' to my problems
is never rebooting the computer, in fact, I don't think I rebooted since
last I posted here - perhaps once). So I am not sure if things are not
working or not, after trying your suggestions. Last reboot they worked,
but that is
Still awaiting reply from kripkenstein.

Does following the advice in

make any difference?

[nvidia-glx] Nvidia binary driver causes progressive breakage
Here it is after sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. Interestingly, it
worked this time at 1024x768! The only quirk was that it says in the
preferences that the refresh rate was 50; yet the monitor itself, and
the nvidia-settings, said that it was 75. I used nvidia-settings to fix
the refresh rate
kripkenstein:
The wrong refresh rate sounds similar to Bug #104105 ...

Not sure I understand you. Should I post the current xorg.conf under
nv (at 1024x768), and then under nvidia with sudo dpkg-reconfigure
xserver-xorg?

Ok, that fixed the X module/kernel module mismatch problem (indeed, it
was exactly the same as the bug you quoted).
Now the NVidia binary can start, but only at 640x480, as before.
Manually editing and adding resolutions to xorg.conf doesn't work. Nor
does disabling EDID probing, that has no
kripkenstein:
OK let's see if we can take a hybrid approach this problem. Could you attach
your current /etc/X11/xorg.conf , then could you back it up and attach the
xorg.conf generated by sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg here too. Copy the
old working configuration back and I'll see if I can
The problem with typing in a terminal was only with terminals during X.
So perhaps this was indeed a bad xorg.conf setting. Or perhaps related
to the Metacity issue.
I tried the nvidia-glx-new. It couldn't even start X. So I am back to
nv.
I will see if the Metacity issue repeats itself in nv.
kripkenstein:
Did you reboot after installing nvidia-glx-new ?
The only other idea I have is disabling EDID probing . See Bug #105957

Yes, I rebooted before trying the new one. Didn't help.
Now I tried to use the old one with the EDID fix, but I can't get it to
load either. It crashes X with the kernel module has version 9755 while
this X module has version 9631...
I thought this might be because of the -new package that I
kripkenstein:
remove the nvdia-glx-new package. Check that ls -al
/lib/linux-restricted-modules/2.6.17-11-generic/ doesn't show a left over
.nvidia_new_installed file. If it does then remove .nvidia_new_installed and
install nvidia-glx (see Bug #106217 )
