Hey all,
I can't begin to describe how much this list has helped me in the last two
weeks. Thanks goes out to all of you! ;)
Well, after about 5 Debian installs, 4 Ubuntu installs, a brief relapse to
XP, and one Fedora Core 2 two install, I finally found a winner with Fedora
Core 3. It just worked and Jared's guide was the frosting on the cake.
My hardware goes like so:
Gigabyte K8NS
nVidia 6600 GT
PVR 250 rev. 980(?)
Maxtor 30GB PATA (for the OS. I probably don't need this after getting FC3
working.)
Maxtor 300GB SATA (for myth stuff man!)
512MB DDR400
IRBlaster from irblaster.info
And a nice SilverStone LC-10 case.
Everything that I've had the chance to screw with is running really great.
Except the TV screen is never filled all the way. I always have large black
bars on the right+left and smaller black bars on the top+bottom.
I've adjusted the TV overlay using nvidia-settings, but with too much of
that, I'm just cutting off GUI space and not really changing to way the
image fits the TV. Is there anything I may be missing here?
I'm including the relative parts of my xorg.conf for further reference. I
pulled the "Monitor" section from the archives here.
TIA,
Chris
