Installed ubuntu gutsy -- fresh install.
Delighted that it configured itself with nvidia, 1680 x 1050 from the
first boot!
None of the hard work that Feisty required to get that.
Sweet. Until last night, when it inexplicably (did I apply some
update or other?) and suddenly decided to boot up in 800 x 600 and in
the hours since then, I am in xorg.conf hell.
I am now scooting along at 1400 x 1050 and still working on it.
In 8-10 more hours, I may be able to figure this out. This is getting me close:

The theme of this whine is that Ubuntu is great for grandma, until
something happens. Then it's back to editing xorg.conf.
I find myself wishing that Linux had some kind of rollback or that
configuration was versioned. Or something.
