I have the 23" version and an FX5200. My Xorg.conf takes assumes you  
have the nvidia drivers and kernel module installed.

The actual resolution of the TV isn't 1360x768, it's 1280x720,  
atleast that's what your OS will require for X to work - however,  
I've never managed to get my Xorg.conf file to work at that  
resolution, so setting it as follows (for reasons unbeknown to me)  
will make your setup switch to the appropriate resolution. My Xorg. 
0.log file says:

(WW) NVIDIA(0): No valid modes for "1360x768"; removing.
(WW) NVIDIA(0):
(WW) NVIDIA(0): Unable to validate any modes; falling back to the  
default mode
(WW) NVIDIA(0):     "nvidia-auto-select".
(WW) NVIDIA(0):
(II) NVIDIA(0): Validated modes:
(II) NVIDIA(0):     "nvidia-auto-select"
(II) NVIDIA(0): Virtual screen size determined to be 1280 x 720

Hope this helps:
