Changing the H and V refresh rates just ended up with X failing to start no suitable screens found. The log files shows *every* screen resolution as not being available due to "hsync out of range" If anyone has managed to get this card to work on a TV with X (or a Mach64, or an S3 Savage - got both of those too) I'd appreciate knowing how/what you did.
