Nvidia’s screen resolution changed!

This has happened before without notice, and what I always did to fix it was change the driver from “nvidia” to “nv” in my xorg.conf file.

But now, after reading my xorg.0.log, and look up the error message I got, I could find a solution for it.

Add:

    Option  "UseEDID" "FALSE"
    Option  "UseEDIDFreqs"  "FALSE"
    Option  "UseEDIDDpi"    "FALSE"
    Option  "ModeValidation"    "FALSE"

To the Device section for your troubled Nvidia card.
