nvidia resolution help

Hi, sorry to add to the nvidia posts, but I did not see anything related. So, here goes:

running opensuse kde 12.3
nvidia 650m graphics

I recently installed opensuse 12.3 on a new laptop. Apparently, the graphics card does not play well with the current kernel (3.7.10.blahblah), so I had to install it in no failsafe mode, and then install the nvidia driver. This works fine, except the kde settings don't show any resolutions except 1920*1280. I can switch to pretty much any resolution I want if I go into the nvidia settings directly. However, every resolution except 1920*1280 has the word (scaled) next to it.

I would like to get the other resolutions available in the kde settings. (Some programs, games really, are not working due to this). I found some links:https://forums.opensuse.org/english/...se-11-3-a.html, SDB:NVIDIA troubleshooting - openSUSE, https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Configuring_graphics_cards.

But they did not help me, or at least not so I could understand. Per one of those links, I installed sax3, but am afraid to use it as I have not found documentation for it.

Did the nvidia stuff get installed incorrectly? What can I do to correct this? Any help is appreciated.
