Looks to me like this is not available on gf2 cards. Why not pick up
a gf4mx440 for around 25£. You may even be able to get a cheaper one
via ebay.
Your driver is the newest version, There is also the option of
contacting the nvidia linux developers they are very helpful and the
forums also may be a better place to post your question. I know the
guys are generally very happy to support linux users (more so than
windows) because of their big "nvidia: the linux advantage" stuff.

when i try to load you settings, i only get
ERROR: Error querying valid values for attribute 'TVOverScan' on 0:0.0
specified on line 42 of configuration file
'/etc/freevo/nvidia-settings'

and some other errors. why isnt overscan available for me? maybe
because of
that, i didnt find the option in nvidia-settings :)
i use nvidia driver version 1.0.7667-2.
that must be a very new one...
any ideas?

You should be able to spot the settings in there;
0/TVOverScan[TV-0]=15
You may also want to tweak this
0/TVFlickerFilter[TV-0]=160
It can sometimes be too high, and at other times be too low, it all
depends on the TV set.
There are lots of other bits'n'bobs to play with on nvidia cards,
but I
should remind you that for this copy of nvidia-settings-rc to work
you
must have the latest driver installed.

If you take a look at the display settings for your TV you
should see
it in there. Alternatively I can send you a nvidia-settings rc file
which has the settings in it.

users nvidia introduced with the 6000 series drivers
nvidia-settings, if you get into X and run nvidia-settings you
can
change the overscan interactively the settings will be saved and
you can re-load them using
nvidia-settings --config=/etc/freevo/nvidia-settings -l
your config file may differ in location, generally it is saved to
~/.nvidia-settings-rc, i've put mine in the freevo directory
simply
because that is where i store all of my freevo settings.
Hope this helps.

Hi all!
i like freevo and everything works very fine for me for over a
year now. but there is one small thing that i dont like, and
thats those black borders on my tv-out. i know, that it is
something with the overscan option in xfree config files, but i
dont know, what to change. it doesnt work for me and i dont
know,
what i do wrong.
does anybody of you know a good site with documentation about
this thing, or does anyone else uses a geforce and doesnt have
those borders?
