I have my MythTV machine using a FX5200 DVI output into a Toshiba
42H83 (previous year's model, and smaller screen, than yours). I don't
know if it will help you, but here are the relevant pieces of my
xorg.conf:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Toshiba 42H83"
DisplaySize 93 52
HorizSync 31-46
VertRefresh 59-61
Option "DPMS"
Mode "540p"
DotClock 40.86
HTimings 960 992 1144 1176
VTimings 540 551 557 568
Flags "+HSync" "+VSync"
EndMode
EndSection
I don't remember how I obtained these values; I either used PowerStrip
(using Windows), or I happened to find a posting somewhere from
someone who had the same television.
HTH,
