It seems that editing the xorg.conf file and just changing the driver to 'nvidia' leaves the name the same, so it *is* using the nvidia driver (I think), as the splash screen shows up. But I can't change the screen resolution to anything above 800x600, and the refresh rate above 70hz. How do I get these options working? I run windows in 1280x1024 at 85hz and I want to be able to do the same in Linux.
