Resolution reverts after Shut Down/Restart

[SkulblakaSama]

This is what I had to do - go into your nVidia settings (System > Administration > nVidia X Server Settings) and choose your resolution. THEN "Save to X Configuration File"...it should bring up an "Authentication" box asking for your password. This should save your settings properly.

As I say, it worked for me.

EDIT - Also try opening the nVidia settings via the terminal with "gksudo nvidia-settings". This will work if my first solution does not.

It's hard to believe that I didn't do that earlier, this "X Configuration File" probably didn't exist so I had to save it.

Now I boot into my preferred resolution, thank you for your assistance!

Well, I tried "Save to X Configuration File" but it says "Failed to Parse Existing X config File '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!"

After that, I'm given an option to save, which I did. Now to reboot...

You should probably go back to page two where sydbat posted about the nVidia X Server Settings and start from there.
Your problem most probably has something to do with that.

If that doesn't solve your problem, you will need to start your own thread as this one has been marked solved.
