Hello I don't think this is a job for awesome (and I'm not sure it could do something), so you probably need to change something in your X configuration. But before doing anything, I had the same problem with my HTPC, solved it by changing the HDMI input label name to 'PC' (in my TV settings). After this change the TV switched to a resolution working with the HTPC. So try looking in your TV menu for this setting. My TV is a Sony, but it seems that it is the same for Samsung ones.
