Not yet, I was first looking for confirmation that it was not just a
configuration issue.  xorg.conf always seems to be hard to get just right
and it looks like with KMS the TV output became TV1 and the "TV Format"
option became "mode".  Can someone please look at my xorg.conf and confirm
it looks ok?

Also, Is the 2.6.32 kernel likely to have already fixed any of these issues?

I'm happy to submit them if they appear to be real issues.
