Hi,
just installing xubuntu lucid on an older machine of mine. Everything runs smoothely until I install the nvidia drivers. They won't recognize my monitor and only allow my a 640x480 resolution. :(
I now thought that maybe I could simply copy the relevant lines for my monitor out of the xorg.conf before installing the drivers, and then past them back into the new xorg.conf. But I now found out after reinstalling that there is no xorg.conf in /etc/X11 before installing the nvidia drivers.
Can anyone help me?
