Hello Brent,

You change the resolution in your xorg.conf file.  The Screens section
defines which resolution(s) should be used.  Though with TV out you
are somewhat limited; but finding a 4:3 ratio resolution should be a
possible solution.  If you are in NTSC land, the 720x480Over (or Under
or Fit depending on what works) might help.  Otherwise, you'll want to
look at something like 640x480 (offhand I can't remember what pixel
width that is, but googling for 4:3 resolutions should help).
