nvidia-drivers-1.0.9639 works perfectly with 1360x768 resolution, but all nvidia-drivers packages after that refuse to use that resolution. This currently includes: nvidia-drivers-1.0.9746-r1 nvidia-drivers-1.0.9755-r1 nvidia-drivers-100.14.09 nvidia-drivers-100.14.11 Good Xorg.0.log output: Connected display device(s) on GeForce 6200 TurboCache(TM) at (--) NVIDIA(0): PCI:1:0:0: (--) NVIDIA(0): HIQ Q320WD DVI (DFP-0) (--) NVIDIA(0): HIQ Q320WD DVI (DFP-0): 155.0 MHz maximum pixel clock (--) NVIDIA(0): HIQ Q320WD DVI (DFP-0): Internal Single Link TMDS (II) NVIDIA(0): Assigned Display Device: DFP-0 (II) NVIDIA(0): Validated modes: (II) NVIDIA(0): "1360x768" (II) NVIDIA(0): Virtual screen size determined to be 1360 x 768 Bad Xorg.0.log output: Connected display device(s) on GeForce 6200 TurboCache(TM) at (--) NVIDIA(0): PCI:1:0:0: (--) NVIDIA(0): HIQ Q320WD DVI (DFP-0) (--) NVIDIA(0): HIQ Q320WD DVI (DFP-0): 155.0 MHz maximum pixel clock (--) NVIDIA(0): HIQ Q320WD DVI (DFP-0): Internal Single Link TMDS (II) NVIDIA(0): Assigned Display Device: DFP-0 (WW) NVIDIA(0): No valid modes for "1360x768"; removing.
