If the combination of your nvidia card and the 'nv' driver support that resolution, then it will appear in the xfce4 display settings, which use xrandr. If not, you will need to install the 'nvidia' driver.


I bought one of the newer nvidia cards (7950GT) and it is not properly 
supported by the 'nv' driver. I could therefore only get 1024x768 on my 
monitor, which normally runs at 1280x1024. After building the 'nvidia' 
driver, all was well.

Unless you are prepared to wait for support for your card to be added to 
the 'nv' driver, and then made available in your distro, you will need 
to install the 'nvidia' driver.

Cheers,
Les
