your probably running X using the old "nv" opensource driver, so the 
NVidia driver - although installed - is not being used. while in X open 
an xterm and type "lsmod" and see if "Used By" is greater than 0 for the 
NVidia module.

In your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file make sure in the device section that 
Driver is "nvidia".
