Login manager issues

Hello, after reconfiguring my xserver, I can no longer log in to openbox with gdm/slim, my new monitor only gives the messeage: "out of range" but if i start up mye computer with starting any login manager and start my xserver with startx, the out of range messeage is there only for a second and then it disappears, and my xserver starts and everything is working fine.

Here's my xorg.conf:

# nvidia-settings: X configuration file generated by nvidia-settings

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky
