Well... it's clear.
Starting with the resolution:
1366x768 (found on google)
the x value is not a multiple of 8. 1368 is!!!!
gtf gives this line:
Modeline "1368x768_60.00" 85.86 1368 1440 1584 1800 768 769 772 795 -HSync +Vsync
My xorg.conf is not complete so I wrote the section screen and monitor
My complete Xorg configuration file is
------ begin xorg.cong
# Xorg configuration created by livna-config-display

Nothing changes, but in the log file I can read extracting only the warning
(WW) Feb 09 09:43:06 NVIDIA(0): No valid modes for "1368x768_60.00"; removing.

I can provide the entire xorg log if it can be usefull.
Maybe I fail to specify the Screen modes, but I'm not an expert of xorg
and I read some examples from google.
Tnx to all
