Excellent, I have both those modes working now (modified slightly to
centre the screen a bit)...  Speaking of which, how does your tele
display the RGB input?  Mine overscans it by a good 20 pixels on each
edge, meaning that the GUI misses the edges and the OSD is only
showing the top/bottm left/right part of the text (which is blocky). 
I guess I could go and adjust the television geometry settings in the
service menu, but that would affect all channels and inputs.

Are you using the "nvidia" X driver or the "nv" X driver?  

Thanks again for sharing your setup details,

cheers,
jani
