Alas, still no luck.
I have pasted the relevant sections of my XF86Config file below. If anyone
has any advice for me, I'd really appreciate this. (I'm using an nVidia
MX4000 PCI card) Also, a new development is my picture is now grayscale.
No more color :(

Thanks Rick, I'll give that a try.
All I tried was the sample nVidia config file for X when I installed the
drivers. I'll take a look inside to be sure that it contains all the
settings.
