[mythtv-users] screen size wizard & myth .24

Has anyone recently used the screen size wizard to successfully change their
screen size to fit a 4:3 television?  I just started from scratch on my main
backend, which means I lost a lot of settings on my various frontends, and I
need to reconfigure them.  I last adjusted the screen for this frontend when
running .22, and the screen size wizard worked great; I was finished in 30
seconds.  Now that I'm trying it using the myth .24 from the Mythbuntu daily
builds, I can't seem to make it work.  I can change the size of the screen,
but I can't seem to make it move relative to the upper left corner of the
screen.  After giving up on the wizard, I tried configuring it from the
"appearance" menu where I can input values directly, and it seems that no
matter what values I set for offset, I can't move the upper left corner of
the screen from the upper left corner of the UI.  I've tried positive and
negative numbers, and it doesn't seem to matter.

FWIW, I'm running Mythbuntu 10.10 upgraded to .24 form the daily builds
repo, running on an intel C2Duo, and 8400GS card, connecting to the TV via
component output. Everything worked great with .24 yesterday, but after
rebuilding my backend from scratch last night, I have this new problem.  I
purposely started from scratch, with a clean OS drive, recordings drive,
database, etc. and this seems to be the only thing left to fix.  Does this
feature still work in .24?  Any ideas?
