Wondering if anyone has any thoughts on a problem I am having with my
laptop. For some reason I can only chose the native resolution of
1440x900. I am using the nvidia driver 304.60 . It used to be that in
the Nvidia settings menu I could select a number of resolutions but now
only the one?? I am attaching my current xorg.conf file below in case
that is of any use. Thanks for any advice on this one.
Cheers,
Jim
