When some people switch to the nVIDIA binary driver ("nvidia" as opposed to "nv"), they can no longer access their desktop. For example, my old BenQ FP731 LCD goes black&blank and displays "Out of range".
Here is the fix:
#vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]"
Driver "nvidia"
Busid "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "AddARGBVisuals" "True"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
Option "NoLogo" "True"
Option "UseEdid" "False"
#Option "UseEdidDpi" "False"
#Option "DPI" "96 x 96"
EndSection
The "UseEdidDpi" and "DPI" options can be used to set the DPI to 96. These settings are specific to nVIDIA gfx chips but there is another way to set a sane DPI...

I have no idea about this topic. I can't say much about your post. I need to know a lot about this topic. nVIDIA binary driver freq fix seems an interesting topic so I want to know much more about it. The coding for the same seems easy.
