I'm surprised this made it to the list, it got rejected from the other two
for being too long.  I installed the nVidia driver and fired up X and
everything worked fine.  So I'm assuming that something was going haywire
with the default X nv driver.  Thanks for the help though.

Here are the bastard lines... It runs your monitor in 75Hz at 1280x1024
instead of the specified maximum 60 Hz  

Try lowering the top ranges for your monitor and see if that helps it,
if not, you can always specify a modeline called "1280x1024b" in the
good old classic way that forces it to use 60Hz 

it simply appears that your monitors spec's and what it can do dont
really match.
