HTPC and LCD

When I first connected my old (but refurbished) HTPC via VGA to the LG LCD TV the screen resolution was auto configured to 1360 x 768. Changing via nvidia-settings to 1920 x 1080 was only possible for the running session and gone after reboot.

Trying to make it permanently via the "Save configuration to X conf" button resulted only in "Failed to parse existing X config file ‘/etc/X11/xorg.conf’"...

Solution was found at Wetware:
recreate xorg.conf with sudo nvidia-xconfig and save the settings permanently with sudo nvidia-settings afterwards ;-)

Thanks to Wetware!
