Thanks for that little tip. It works now, yay!
One thing that's a little annoying though is the fact that now I've got the icon for the "Autostart" folder on the desktop. Oh well...

? It created a correct xorg.conf, but there are other settings that it needs to apply on startup for some reason. For example, I've got it set to do special GPU scaling when the resolution is set to something other than the screen's native res of 1366x768, so that the display doesn't look "stretched" if a game or other finicky program wants to run in a non-16:9 aspect ratio.
That, and other various things like forcing OpenGL apps to vsync, on-demand vblank interrupts to save power when on battery (this is on a laptop), etc. For some reason they only apply when I load nvidia-settings upon login. But, it's good to know that the autostart workaround works...
