[mythtv-users] Can't get a stable xorg.conf file

[Dave]

Backup your old /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old and
use mine (find attached)
I have the nvidia driver which works fine.
You are correct about the sound card.
Use your normal monitor to get it all working - tweaking for tv comes later.
