I did as you said, removing xorg.conf and rebooted but it still selected
"nv" .
I went into system-config-display and selected "nouveau" but it only
allows me a resolution of 640x480 I want to setup at 1024x768 .
I edited xorg.conf and put in a line Modes "1024x768" but when I
reboot it takes that line out.
