Display of Intel G35/X3500 via HDMI on HDTV is shifted to the left

[Arjen van der Meijden]

Hi list,

I have a Asus P5E-VM-HDMI mainboard with Intel G35 chipset. I've a 
Toshiba  37Z3030 (fullhd) TV connected to it using the HDMI-output.

Although it more or less works, the image displayed on the TV is shifted 
about 35 pixels to the left and 15 pixels to the top (i.e. the upper 
left corner of the image is behind the upper left corner of the bezel of 
the screen) and on right and bottom side I have blank pixels.

This happens with Ubuntu Linux 710 Gutsy (Xorg-core 1.3 and intel driver 
2.1.1), the current Hardy version (Intel 2.2.0+git20080107 and Xorg 
1.4.1~git20080118) and today's git-checkout of the Intel driver with 
Hardy's Xorg. And using 32bits or 64bits didn't matter, although 
currently I'm using 32bits.

I have currently no modelines or resolution configurations in my 
xorg.conf, nor did specifying any help. I couldn't really find earlier 
mail in the archive about this issue, except for some remarks that it 
was supposedly fixed in 2.2.0/1.4.0.

As a sidenote I can't seem to get the screen working with 1920x1080 at 
60Hz, X only detects 1920x1080 at 0Hz (and 720x576 and 640x480) and 
refuses to operate with any other modeline. The detected frequencies 
seem to indicate it operates at 50Hz.

In windows I was able to select 24, 25, 30, 50 and 60 Hz for 1920x1080 
and the image is correctly positioned on the display.

Best regards,

Arjen
