Impossible to change the resolution on wheezy to 1920x1080 I'm stuck and I'd down a bit as 1360x768.
At the beginning in nvidia-settings i only had the choice to 1920x1080, after adding: Option "ModeValidation" "AllowNonEdidModes" in my xorg.conf any resolutions are listed but black screen when i want to change ...
Same problem with xrandr when I change:
xrandr --output LVDS-0 --mode 1360x768 --rate 60 ==> black screen
I tested lot of solution but nothing happens, now i think the problem is edid and kms; I got the file edid.bin from nvidia-settings and try to add in my grub default.
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=edid/edid.bin"
OR
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet nomodeset nouveau.modeset=0"
But again no change, do you have a solution before I steal the magic wand of my niece ?
Attachement :
$ xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 16384 x 16384
VGA-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

I think Xorg does not work properly or is not installed in your system, because you are using a proprietary nvidia driver instead.
I just had the same problem. You can replace /etc/X11/xorg.conf with a backup if you have one.
sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bck /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Otherwise, you can delete all its content and it will work fine.
