There is one more that I need to fix. The picture is large that menus at the bottom or at top, left and right side are getting cut. I'm guessing that I am only able to watch 1880x1040. It's centered though. In my U.S. digital receiver, everything is seen.
So is there a way to fit it?
Thanks,

Lots of good info here:
ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-6629/README.txt
Appendix I and J will be of particulr use
Modelines are a pain though, I recently gave up on trying to get my
DVI to HDMI cable output working on my Panny HDTV and went back to
SVideo output as I could not get a satisfactory modeline other than
720x480 which was not what I was looking for.
Good luck
Robin

Yeah, your guess was correct. I connected my 6600 card to HDTV via the DVI
cable.
