Re: problem with display resolution

You may want to goto http://www.nvidia.com and download the linux drivers 
for the GeForce card.

there are instructions there on how to set it up and they have quite a 
nice installer that automates much of the process for you.

Just remember to backup your XFree86 config file before editing it :-)

( the linux drivers link is at http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux.html )
