[mythtv-users] Myth doesn't use the entire screen

MythTV 0.21
I just moved my combined FE/BE into the basement and hitched it up to
an old 27" CRT and am using a dedicated FE on my LCD.
Problem:
This is an old (1995) 27" Samsung CRT.
Using the xorg.conf provided below I have about an inch or so of
unused spaced completely around the TV.
Googling an experimenting wasn't getting me anywhere. In fact I am
lucky I got it to display in the end.
Just wondering if anyone has some suggestions on what I might try. I
tried looking for the specs of the TV (vert, horz refresh rates and so
on) and can't find any. It is old.
TIA,
Dave
