Hey All,<br><br>Been searching through the forums and I don't see anything that quite matches my problem. If someone can point me at a thread or two where this is discussed, I'd be grateful.<br><br>Everyone usually complains that their screen resolution is too low, but my problem is reversed. Under Fedora 8, my Nvidia card would run my Philips 47" LCD TV at XGA - 1024x768@60hz. The manual for my TV confirms that this should be the highest resolution when connected to a PC. However, under Fedora 10, with the same legacy driver (atrpms 96xx), xrandr shows the screen resolution is set at 1280x720@50hz.<br>
<br>At first I thought to myself "well this is cool." Then I noticed that this effectively stretches out the desktop and display beyond the "borders" of the screen. I cannot access the menus or panels on my desktop, and it also cuts off menu items in the setup utilities for mythtv. I tried manually forcing 1024x768 by making it the only mode in xorg.conf, but the nvidia driver just ignores that and brings the display up in the higher resolution anyway. And xrandr does not even show 1024x768 as an option anymore. I get 1280x720, followed by 800x600 and down.<br>
<br>On a side note: All of my videos are now stuttering and freezing when I play them. Could it be the two issues are related?<br> <br><br>System specifics:<br>The nvidia card has a DVI port that uses a DVI-to-HDMI cable to connect to an HDMI port on my TV. <br>
