Yes, that's right.

Thanks!

I'll reply separately with the xorg.conf file.

I did encounter a problem that I couldn't save my settings from the
nvidia tool, but that's a fairly well-known issue - it affects Linux
Mint as well, for example - and I found an answer with Google. (Remove
the existing xorg.conf and the nvidia program writes a new one.)
