[Openchrome-users] 1625 TV encoder using S-Video output displays narrow image

Just following up with myself:

I remembered I was using the via driver from portage (gentoo).  I
uninstalled it and installed the SVN openchrome (rev 221) thinking
that there would be progress in a newer release.

However, after switching to 221, the screen no longer produces a
picture and instead now gives gray/black/white "out of sync" lines.
I'll take a picture and attach it if someone wants.

So it seems to have regressed for some reason.  I was getting a
picture, and could actually play video (HDTV even) in mythtv, albeit a
squished image.  Now I can't even get into X, much less watch
anything.

I'll attach my xorg.conf so anyone can take a stab who wants to.

FYI, I have several "modes" listed in my xorg.conf, and I've tried
them all but nothing changes.  I even snagged a modeline from the
internet for 720x480, but same problem, so it's currently commented
out.

Thanks for any ideas!
