It looks like you are using the open source driver. I know most of us on
the list are using the NVIDIA binary driver (usually 4363). You might want
to try something like this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "All"
BoardName "All"
EndSection
Once you get that working you can tweak some of the other settings.
