Thank you for the prompt response; I will try xvidtune.  I didn't know there was such an animal (as I said, I'm a total Linux newbie), but figured there had to be a utility for this in there somewhere.

As far as TwinView, I did some googling and I think I've got a working xorg.conf to try after work today.

One more question:

I've read in the archives that the MCE remote will work, but what about the IR blaster?  Will this have to be replaced with on from irblaster.info or similar?

Thanks again for your help!

This is normal.

Yes.  I think nVidia calls this TwinView or something like that

Myth screens for 4:3 are built for 800x600 resolution in the menus and
this is what I use.

Maybe try xvidtune?
