Hi all

I'b be grateful for help with the following problem

When my new install of Ubuntu 8.04 boots the screen changes resolution instead of sticking with the 1152x768 I'd like it to.

I'm using the GeForce4 MX 4000 & a single monitor ADI GD-790.

The Splash screen appears normally but the Nvidia logo & log-in screens appears magnified - what should be only the upper left corner covers the whole screen! Luckily the log-in box is still visible so I log-in and the screen returns to the correct 1152x768.

my Xorg.conf file is below. the lines starting ##### i've removed which improves things a little.
