Thanks John! I'll try, but not today. I need to make something clear at
first:
If the display card/driver is correct, then which file controls the
screen resolution? What I see is that the X can work with:
   1) /etc/X11/.xorg.conf
   2) /etc/X11/xorg.conf
   3) without above files

The proof is that I can find "(EE) Unable to locate/open config file"
in /var/log/Xorg.0.log, or "(++) Using config file:
"/etc/X11/.xorg.conf"" in /var/log/Xorg.8.log. 

But the truth is, 
  1) when X "unable to locate/open config file", it works well, except
the frequency problem -- my ViewSonic PF790 support up to 148Hz but in
this case it's only 75Hz. 
  2) when X uses /etc/X11/.xorg.conf, it only support [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  3) when X uses /etc/X11/xorg.conf, which was created
by /usr/X11R6/bin/xorgconfig, it only support [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Case 1) is the default situation before I install Nvidia driver
1.0-9755. After I install Nvidia driver 1.0-9755, I met case 2) and 3).

I tried to change the /etc/X11/xorg.conf after running xorgconfig but no
luck.

And I don't know where the .xorg.conf comes from.

Any idea?
