that is what I got from running that. I tried running

sudo nvidia-xconfig

and I got this

Using X configuration file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf".
Backed up file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' as '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'
New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'


does that help at all?

Thanks

John
