    Majority of my problem now are solved, but i have a very iritant last one! I am not able to set resolution higher than 1024×768 on a monitor that support 1280×1024 resolution. There is a solution to solve these problem? I have an integrated nvidia 7025 video card and I installed the “nv” drivers with tazx.

    Some more information:

    Please use Pastebin only for output over 15 lines.
    Pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
    It will say why xorg can’t display 1280×1024
    Post output here:
    uname -a

    The log indicates because NV(0): Estimated virtual size for aspect ratio 1.3200 is 1024×768
    NV driver detects all resolutions 1280×1024 and greater:
    Not using driver mode “1280×1024″(width too large for virtual size)
    I was unable to find out how to configure xorg to ignore this and force a 1280×1024 resolution with the NV driver.

    Try the nvidia driver:
    http://www.mediafire.com/file/7v20zi36bbv0443/nvidia-173xx-173.14.28_2.6.37.tazpkg
    Open xterm
    su
    password: root
    nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/60-Device.conf
    Change:
    Driver “nv”
    to
    Driver “nvidia”
    Ctrl+x
    Y
    Logout/Logout X session

    If X fails to start with nvidia driver, login as root, tazx , reinstall nv, reboot.

    try to add a new modeline to xorg.conf:
    # Xorg –configure
    in root directory will create a file xorg.conf, copy it in /etc/X11/, then add somthing like this:
    …..
    Section “Monitor”
    Modeline “1280×1024″ 108.88 1280 1360 1496 1712 1024 1025 1028 1060 -Hsync +Vsync
    ……
    Section “Screen”
    DefaultDepth 24
    …….
    SubSection “Display”
    Depth 24
    Modes “1280×1024″ “1024×768″ “800×600″
    ….
    …….

    Especially for your monitor, you can find the settings for the Modeline on the Internet.
    I hope this helps you solve this problem.

    And I apologize for my poor English.))
