Aight man, thanks for the help, but this is driving me nuts. The guide got me no where, surprisingly. It just says I already have the graphics driver installed and no other steps yield any better responses.
I decided to skip down and check out the xorg.conf file to see if my resolutions were listed. Tell me what you think.

Also, in synaptic I searched for nvidia. Does nvidia-settings and nvidia-xconfig have to be installed? Because... they're uh... they're not.
