Yes, but that Webpage is almost certainly assuming 1080i on the part
of the reader. I figure that if my card can do 1080p, and the monitor
can do 1080p (and, of course, all LCD panels are by definition
progressive devices, whether or not the input signal is such), so I'd
want the connection in between to be able to handle 1080p. Based on my
reading of Xorg.log my cable doesn't seem to qualify.
