I'm not sure what you mean here. In my make.conf file, I have the line |
| 18 |
video_cards="nvidia" |

Are you sure you're handing it a recognized mode |

I use genkernel and there is a screen resolution of something that says |
| 28 |
1024x768 and I can't edit it. I also don't know what my horizontal and |
| 29 |
vertical sync are because it's not in my documentation and when I used |
| 30 |
ddxcinfo-knoppix -hsync, it returns 0 0 and ddcxinfo-knoppix -modlines |
| 31 |
doesn't have a corresponding mode for my monitor - the resolution is |
| 32 |
1920x1200. |
