As I said, things seem to be working, but the times I have timed out on the log-on screen the problem re-appears till I reboot. Before everything seemed to be listed properly with the right nvidia video driver and screen resolution (1440x900), but looked like it was 640x480 After many hours over many days and many cold and warm boots later, I sorta gave up. Several days after that I boot up and EVERYTHING WORKED! Still don't know why.
