Hi all,<br><br>I stumbled upon this information when I was upgrading my system to Fedora 18 yesterday. With the newer nVidia drivers (greater than version 300), you can add a line to the Screen section of xorg.conf to compensate for overscan.<br>
<br>Brief instructions with an example are on the wiki: <a href="http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Overscan" target="_blank">http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Overscan</a><br><br>There is a link to the original nVidia README which you might find useful as well.<br>
<br>I hope someone finds this useful. I've been trying to fix overscan for a few years now. I haven't seen anything on the list about this. The overscan on my television is quite extensive, and this cleaned things up nicely after about fifteen minutes of experimentation.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
