# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the

# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:

# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"

# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and

do you have two nvidia video cards in this computer or what, as there are two listed in your xorg.conf, and one is using the nvidia driver (nv) and the other is not, it's using the default non-hardware accelerated video driver (vesa)
cheers

I just typed this out, so there will most likely be a typo or 5 in it. You will also have to update some of the driver names and paths as this file was being used on a FreeBSD system.
