Thanks for the help, I have updated my kernel and intel driver from the
repositories below. And still having difficulties.

I have a xorg.conf (including a modeline to support my TV) this works
for a DVI>>HDMI connection. If I move the exact same modeline to the
section for my component connection get a squashed up display (approx
1/3 screen displayed).

Am I missing some additional setting that I need to add in the monitor
section for my component (TV) section?

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML
Express Integrated Graphics Controller"
        Driver          "intel"
        BusID           "PCI:0:2:0"
        Option          "monitor-VGA1"  "VGA"
        Option          "monitor-TV1"   "TV"
        Option          "monitor-LVDS1" "LVDS"
        Option          "monitor-DVI1" "HDMI"
        Option 		"IgnoreEDID" "true"

EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "VGA"
        Option "Ignore" "true"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "TV"
        Option "Ignore" "false"
       	ModeLine        "1280x720p" 74.5 1280 1336 1472 1664 720 721 724
746 -hsync +vsync
       	Option                 "PerferredMode"         "1280x720p"
EndSection

etc...............
 
Thanks

J...
