I replaced this section :
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "vesa"
EndSection
with this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
BoardName "Quadro FX 3700M"
EndSection
and the resolution reverts back to the old resolution where the system reports
it as 1920x1200 but it's clearly something more like 1280x800
at this point I'd rather have true 1920x1200 than glx effects if I can't have
both. However if anyone has any thoughts I'd appreciate any input on how to
get both.
Below are the 2 config files:
This one (my current xorg.conf) gives me "true" 1920x1200
# Xorg configuration created by livna-config-display
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "single head configuration"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0

EndSection

Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
# keyboard added by rhpxl
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105+inet"
Option "XkbLayout" "us"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
ModelName "LCD Panel 1920x1200"
HorizSync 31.5 - 74.5
VertRefresh 56.0 - 65.0
Option "dpms"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "vesa"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
This one gives me the glx screensavers and desktop effects but I only get about
1280x800 screen resolution even though the system (xrand) reports that it's
running at 1920x1200
