Post subject:  Vizio 37" lcd display concern
Hi all,

I decided to connect to my vizio 37" tv via VGA to try an avoid overscan. This worked with a default resolution of 1024x768. I wanted to use the full 1366x768 resolution and found an xorg.conf file to replace the existing one and that works, except, just right of center the screen gets fuzzy and text takes on a "bold" appearance.

You'd never notice it watching tv, but using firefox its pretty obvious. I'm worried that I'm possibly damaging my tv. The xorg.conf file is from here http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Vizio_VX37L and copied below. TIA
