[clug] Has anyone got a recent nVidia card working multi-resolution?

nv driver is somewhat limited in this regard.

Hrm, so what is the error when you try to build the nvidia module from
the nvidia website?  I am guessing that you have already installed the
kernel headers from the kernel version that you are running?
