How can I get the resolution setting for my nvidia card to stick?
Whenever I log on the resolution reverts to 1280 x 1024. I can reset
this to 1680 X 1050 using the nvidia-settings widget and I click the
"Save to X Configuration File" button but this setting only lasts
through my current session.
1- System>Administration>Livna Display configuration
Then untick "Allow livna-config-display to edit configuration files"
2- Write your own xorg.conf file

I've done this and it doesn't do any good. It also doesn't seem to
matter what I put in the xorg.conf file -- or even if I have no
xorg.conf file at all. When I logon the desktop has 1280x1024
resolution. I can change this to 1680x1050 using the nvidia-settings
widget but this change is always lost when I reboot.

I'm running FC11 with a PAE kernel and kmod-nvidia. The videocard is a
GeForce 6200 (nvidia series 6) and the monitor is a ViewSonic VG2030wm.

nvidia-settings... system-config-display... livna-config-display... or
even .nvidia-settings-rc (a file I found in my home directory) -- Who's
in charge? And what's livna doing here anyway, it's not one of my
enabled repositories?

Any suggestions as to how to proceed would be most appreciated.... Jerry


Copy and paste this into your /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
Put it just after the "Device Section"
And change the "1024x768" to the settings you want, be sure you leave the
"   " there when you change the setting you want.




Section "Screen"
    Identifier "Screen0"
    Device     "Videocard0"
    Monitor    "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth     24
    SubSection "Display"
        Viewport   0 0
        Depth     24
        Modes    "1024x768"
    EndSubSection
EndSection
