Hi Mythtv users

Got a problem with my GF4MX card, i can not get SVIDEO to work with
it. Composite works fine. I also got the feeling, that the resolution
is only 640x480, everything looks a little bit pressed together.

I am using Ubuntu with nvidia drivers; how can I check which version?
Does it matter?

Here is the device and screen part of my xorg.conf:
