Section "Device" Identifier "NVIDIA Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x]" Driver "nv" BusID "PCI:1:0:0" EndSection This is going to sound kludgey, but try removing and reinstalling the nvidia driver. But even without it, your modes look fine, which puzzles me. As an aside, "apt-get dist-upgrade" is, from all I've heard, a generally unreliable way to do business. When Dapper releases in April, I'd reccommend a backup of /home and a fresh install.
