Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the installer uses Xsun, and when you boot the \
first time you are kicked over to Xorg which isn't really configured yet.

I think you have a couple choices:

1) Go back to Xsun.  Run kdmconfig and answer the prompts.  Easy and fast.
2) Install the binary nvidia driver and configure a working xorg.conf (in /etc/X11)

I went the latter route because I had a decent twinview setup leftover from a gentoo \
install.  If you do this and your hardware isn't officially supported yet, you'll \
need to append something to /etc/driver_aliases for the nvidia driver to work.

hth,
Scott
