This bug is caused by bugs #574397 and #1069365.
As you can see in the xorg.conf, the nvidia kernel module cannot be
loaded. This is so, because it was simply not build because of missing
kernel headers. The wrong screen resulution comes from the fallback.
Workaround: install kernel headers and reinstall nvidia-current
manually. Reboot.
I will close the bug -> status invalid.
