Tim or Ken, can you share your xorg.conf?

I've got a LV-667T and I'm in NTSC land and a working xorg.conf would
be a big help. I don't have a HDTV, but I do have HDTV content I would
like to output via composite to my ancient sony 27"(no s-video).

I'm not a coder but I'll test what I can.

Thanks,
Eric
