But now I'm even more confused. Ideally I'd like to understand why it
suddenly works. Everything I've found on the net describes the great
difficulty in configuring this laptop to run correctly at
1400x1050. Some X config files I've found (which didn't work) contain
1400x1050 modelines like yours above. However, I can't see any
reference to that resolution in the now running config built by the
nVidia installer which seems to work fine. I've quoted the original
flawed XF86Config file and also the modified version that the nVidia
installer produced. Can anyone here tell me why it works?
Hmm the modelines are almost identical, your sure your desktop is at
1400x1050?
xdpyinfo | grep dimensions should confirm it. If it is then I am not
sure why the file dosent reflect that unless there is some sort of
auto-detection that happens first.
