[Bug 461471] [NEW] Nvidia X Display become 640x480, (default 1280x1024) after main power loss and restart back.

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvidia-settings

I'm experienced main power loss at my home around 30mins. Before my PC were shutdown automatically because of the power loss, my default display is 1280x1024. When the power goes up back, suddenly my display become default by 640x480. When I check the resolution available, there's only 'Off" which is actually disabled, 'Auto' which sets my default display to 640x480, '640x480' and '320x240'. The other options are lose to nowhere. And than I press Ctrl+Alt+F2, login as root, and shutdown the PC through command window (terminal in desktop tty2). When it restarts back, after I really fed up with the Nvidia settings, I choose 'xfix' on the options window. And then I shutdown the correct way. When I switch on back my PC, the resolution become as what I need (1280x1024). But when I run 'nvidia-settings' after press Alt+F2, suddenly there's an error, due to I use 'xfix' stated that I'm not using the Nvidia X Services and ask me to login as root and run terminal, then put the command 'nvidia-xconfig'. Then I do it as instructed by the program, and then nothing happens in the terminal. Now, what do I want is actually, how to solve the power probs regarding to my graphic display and how to enable back the Nvidia X Services?
Attached also are the screenshot of the Nvidia X Services Settings which shows the error.
Hope somebody here from LP can assist me solve this stress-minded probs.
Thanks.
