[mythtv-users] xconfiguration for use with MythTV

[Lane Maxwell]

Thanks, Marc.  My TV is a Toshiba 51H83.  I checked the modeline database 
before and the closest thing I could find was for 42H83 and 50H81, neither 
of these had modelines that worked for my setup.  This computer 
previously had Windows on it, which worked perfectly @ 720x576, 60Hz...but 
I haven't found an xconfiguration that works without giving the rolling 
screen.
