From your xorg.conf:

Code:

Section "Screen"
        Identifier      "Default Screen"
        Monitor         "Configured Monitor"
        Device          "Configured Video Device"
        DefaultDepth    24
        SubSection "Display"
                Virtual 2048 768
        EndSubSection
EndSection

IMHO, your screen resolution can't be bigger than your virtual screen size. Somewhere you must have requested to write such a nonsense in you xorg.conf ;-)

You could try:

Remove the three lines "SubSection...EndSubSection"
Run without a xorg.conf at all (move it away)
Run nvidia-xconfig

There may be other bogus configuration files which I didn't see though.
