None suggested applying Occam's Razor (the simplest explanation/strategy/solution tends to be the best one): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor Try the autosize button on the TV. If it doesn't have a dedicated button for it, find the equivalent in its menus. If it doesn't have that either, resize manually. Regardless whether the above works, be sure to try expunging the modelines from xorg.conf. In my experience they're rarely necessary for any display made in the past decade, and more likely to create trouble than solve it. -- "Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.
