Please help for a rookie

Sorry, I learned just enough Spanish to flirt with the lady's and that doesn't translate well to technical things.
I would have used Babelfish but the results are laughable, So someone else will have to translate

I presume you installed your drivers with Envyng, if not, install them with Envyng before going further.
The resolution change isn't permanent due to permissions.
The way I get around the permission issue:
In a terminal type

Code: Select all

sudo nvidia-xconfig

Select Xserver display configuration
Set your resolution and hit apply
if you like it, hit Keep this setting
then select Save to X configuration file
when you set your resolution this way it will save your changes to xorg.conf because you opened nvidia-xconfig as root.

Pero no, no molestas!!! Estaba bromeando!

Thanks for trying to help Leadfingers, but he reported a couple of posts back that the resolution thing is solved already, and so is the repo problem for now.
