xorg.conf error

[Tipton, Timothy]

Hello all,

 

I seem to have some sort of problem with my xorg.conf. I recently
reinstalled Ubuntu 7.07 on a pretty new machine with an Nvidia card -
when I log in my resolution is low - to the tune of 1024x ... The video
card is well capable of 1600x ... (as it worked that way previously) 

 

Anyway, I go into my Nvidia settings and make the display change to a
better resolution - in this case I'm just going to 1280x ... - and when
I click "Save to Xorg.conf" I get a couple of errors: "Unable to create
xorg.conf" and "Unable to create backup of xorg.conf".

 

What am I to do, and how am I to do it?

 

Thank you so much for your help,

Tim
