Your xorg.conf looks a bit bizarre
Section "Device"
Identifier "Device[0]"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "VESA"
BoardName "Framebuffer Graphics"
EndSection
This is completely wrong!
vesa is no vendor and framebuffer as board name....
It has been all mixed up some way
Try reinstalling in Envy or if you prefer the "conventional way"
First uninstall the driver and then install

You can also go to the nvidia site and download the i386 driver for your card and run its installer. Just read the instructions in the readme file. its pretty straight forward. it will write out the xorg file for you with the correct settings.

Come to think of it - you could also try to reconfigure x

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
