Bug Description
Two games;
Wolfstein: Enemy Territory and Extreme Tux Racer. Both like to do default resolution of 800x600. When these games start up, my monitor produces an Out of Range error. In Ubuntu 7.10, this error didn't appear.
If Desktop resolution is set to 800x600, no monitor error is reported.
If any other desktop resolution is used, no monitor error is reported.
Open Arena, Alien Arena (though broken) appear to function.

Confirmed aka Tested and Broken for both nvidia and NV drivers with help from Emmet Hikory.
