[kurian]

hi me has got a nvidia geforce 2 integrated Gpu graphics card ... .after installing the freespire... i installed the nvidia-legacy driver through synaptic....and then in the xorg.conf file i changed the nv from nvidia... After reboot the nvidia splash screen appeared showing the nvidia was installed successfully...... now when i went to display section in the control panel i could see only one resolution there ie, 1024x768 i am not able to change to 800x600 resolution with refresh rate 85 which is the configuration i used to keep in my system. my monitor is samsung samtron 56v which is not detected in the display section...........Kindly give me a gud reply how to properly change my resolution and refresh rate. the same problem i faced in ubuntu feisty too.....the xorg.conf file is placed here.....

In a console..

sudo nvidia-settings

Cleans up /etc/X11/xorg.conf nicely, and you can set the screen resolutions..
--just remember to save to x configuration file
