I'm trying to get HDTV output on my mythtv box. The computer has a
GeForce 6600. My TV is a Toshiba 46H84 with a resolution of 1080i. I
connected it with DVI-D to HDMI cable. My mythtv box is running gentoo
is using the 1.0.8178. I got the video card to output a 1920x1080
resolution, but the video shakes vertically. How do I prevent it from
shaking?
Here is the /etc/X11/xorg.conf that I'm using:

# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
