I plugged my old Athlon XP system (FC6, Radeon 9600 AGP) into my TV
using the DVI connector. The resolution adjusts correctly AFAICT, but
the X virtual desktop size is larger than the real resolution, which
messes up xine and mplayer in full-screen mode.
My xorg.conf is below. Since the resolution and size are getting set
automagically, I don't know how to tell X to set the virtual desktop the
same size as the physical desktop. Anybody know where to set this?
I suppose I could set "NoDDC" and manually configure everything, but if
there's an easier way to keep the DDC info, but JUST override the
virtual desktop size, I would prefer to do that.
