[mythtv-users] Vizio VX32L and unable to get native 1366x768 resoloution

[Michael Klatsky]

All-


When I was only analog- my mythtv setup worked great. Now that I have
gone digital- wow.

As my subject line states- I have a Vizio VX32L HDTV. It's native
resolution is 1366x768. After trying multiple configurations, including
the one for the 37: version of my TV, I finally decided to try
generating a modeline using "gtf 1366 768 60 -v" and that is in my
xorg.conf below.

No matter what I try- all I get is a "default" resolution of 1280x720.
Any ideas would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance,

Michael
