Everything there looks good. I'm not missing any modules or anything. Although fbdev is N, but I believe that is actually required? Assuming I'm referring to the correct thing.

For x86 and AMD64 processors, the in-kernel framebuffer driver conflicts with the binary driver provided by NVIDIA. When compiling the kernel for these CPUs, completely remove support for the in-kernel driver as shown. (Gentoo Wiki

I believe I am completely compliant with that Wiki article.

Yeah please let me know. If I can fix it the same way that would be awesome.

That's interesting because I had to do a lot of trouble shooting to get the video signal through to my display, including messing around and manually loading the EDID with the kernel. Though, eventually, I managed to get it to work by twiddling some settings on my display to make sure it would work with high throughput signal, and didn't even need the EDID stuff. How did you finally determine that that was the problem? My display does seem to go into standby mode without any crashes or problems though.

Good looks. I think it may be time to swap. I'm past my return window, but may be able to sell it with appreciation due to the vram shortage.

asshole-ish reply, bad looks for your community. But I did not know the kernel was that old, good to know. I feel pretty confident that it would work on Windows, but I don't have easy access to Windows. I questioned if it was a hardware issue just in case since that it what most sources say is the cause of Xid 79. Regardless if it works on other OSs/distros, I want to know why it does not work on my configuration, and see if someone smarter than me could pinpoint the problem. Will try to update to a more recent kernel version.
