Note: |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
I'm still using the SVGA port, not the HDMI port |
| 73 |
and I do experience a little bit of "cropping" |
| 74 |
but the numver 1360 is more correct. Everything |
| 75 |
my setup is pretty much standard. |
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
The model number was indicates a 32" screen, but |
| 78 |
in fact it is a 37" screen. I do not believe this |
| 79 |
makes a whole lot of difference. If/when you get |
| 80 |
the HDMI interface working send me some email |
| 81 |
with any differences in the xorg.conf file you notice. |
