It's an X configuration issue.. I'm currently using this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "sis"
VendorName "Silicon Integrated Systems"
BoardName "SiS 315/650"
VideoRam 65536
Option "XvOnCRT2" "true"
Option "ForceCRT2Type" "SVIDEO"
Option "TVStandard" "NTSC"
Option "CHTVOverscan" "true"
EndSection
The bar looks like the start of the active area is too far away from the
sync pulse. The active area also appears to extend well into the right
overscan area of the display, as if what it wants is to be shifted left.
