You've got several problems going on here. First your nvidia driver isn't
loading correctly. Either you don't have the module installed, or you have
the wrong one installed. That's the first thing you need to fix (or use the
open source nv driver which won't work nearly as well).
Second you don't specify a default resolution in your screen section. It
should look more like this
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "ATSC-720-60p"
EndSubSection
And third you've disabled ediddpi, but haven't specified what dpi you want
to use. Add another option like;
Option "DPI" "100x100"
I could probably find more that needs to be fixed, but that's a start. Have
you looked around for any sample xorg.conf files? Google around and you'll
probably find one that gets you a lot closer than you are right now.
