One gotcha with modelines is that the values are supposed to be multiples of 8, which means in practice you need 1360x768, losing 4 pixel each side.<br>
<br>
Our present TV seems also to be 1366x768 - although it's never explicitly said anywhere, even in the EDID. There's only a brief mention of "million pixel display" in the manual which is the giveaway. This one, however, is fed by HDMI and with an NVidia ION2 chip driving it, and the "exact-PC" option selected in the TV menu, "does the right thing".<br>
