I have a new R5E50 install of KnoppMyth working great on my monitor (VGA), or using S-Video output to my television. I'm trying to get Component Video to display but I only get two large green vertical bars on the television. During boot-up I see the NVIDIA logo displayed in each of the three sections, so it appears that the display is squished horizontally and repeated three times from left to right.
Here is my environment:
Hardware:
Hauppauge PVR-500
GeForce FX5200
DaeWoo Television that uses 480i (confirmed this at manufacturer's site) and has YPrPb component video input - the input jacks are actually marked Y Pb and Pr (Note: this is NOT an HDTV)
The FX5200 has a DVI-I output port (confirmed with nVidia and with the card manufacturer Chaintech that this specific card actually produces a DVI-I signal).
I purchased a DVI-I to Component Video (YPbPr) cable to connect the graphics card to the television.
I'm using the default nvida drivers that came with the KnoppMyth R5E5 distribution. Here is my current xorg.conf file. Can anyone see what is missing?

Before recommending that I upgrade the nvidia driver, I have tried many times but keep running into the issue below and have been unable to find anyone who can offer a solution that works on my system (have spent days researching forum posts on the subject). If you have a solution for upgrading the video card, I'll gladly accomodate. These are the instructions I have been trying to follow:

And I keep running into this same issue as many other people who have posted to this forum.

NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 1.0-9746, but
NVRM: this kernel module has the version 1.0-8776. Please
NVRM: make sure that this kernel module and all NVIDIA driver
NVRM: components have the same version.
Thanks in advance,
