I have a Sony Wega FD Trinitron (KV-36FS100) hooked up with a VGA to
Component adapter.  I am having some troubles getting it to output
correctly on theTV.  I spent several hours going through various guides
meant more for the HDTV models, but with no luck.  Mostly because I
don't understand video at all, I'm sure.  It looks the the refresh and
colors are good, the video doesn't roll or anything like that.  But it
is squished and repeated into 3 columns accross the TV.  If anybody has
some tips on what I need to put in my xorg.conf that would be greatly
appreciated.  I'll put what I have now up too.
