Hey I think I'm experiencing the same sort of problems here, I installed some updates (from today), and after I rebooted it started with low-res mode, I installed some driversusing envyNG and now I dont get the message when I boot (it used to give me a message telling me to select my monitor and video card) but I still have the problem. Only 640*480 and below to select.
I solved this problem before by reinstalling an old driver I had, the one that was "like default" when I installed ubuntu.
I have a Nimitz monitor that supports up to 1200*1024, and a nvidia 6100 nforce 430.
This is my xorg.conf
I guess it does not detect my monitor at all.

# You should use dexconf or another such tool for creating a "real" xorg.conf
# For example:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

Oh, and when I open the NVIDIA X server settings it shows up everything just fine, but detects a CRT monitor, it says: "@@@ 1780 (CRT-0 on GPU-0).
Any ideas?
