could use ubuntu help

[droctogonapus]

I have a pc connected to my tv to watch movies on or stream games too and the image has shifted over the left and up.  I have to use a custom resolution of 1840x1036 to fix the overscan issues on the tv.  I cannot seem to fix the shifting issue and I have been looking around and haven't found anything that would help me.


I have a Nvidia GeForce 9200 intergrated graphics gpu using nvidia_304_updates proprietary drivers.  That's all the info the drivers give.


This is what is looks like on my tv

auto ajust is the best (tv option on controler)

Does it look ok on Windows?
Can you adjust anything on the TV?

Where did you set that resolution in? the video options or xorg.conf?
I think what the ubuntu tried to do is compensate and fill the screen.. Because it does not really like custom resolutions that are not standard resolutions. What is the closest 'normal' resolution to 1840x1036
and in TV you cant move the screen manually?

On Windows I adjusted the resolution to fit the tv.  The tv is centred on windows but on ubuntu it doesn't adjust to the centre.  There is no auto adjust option on the tv.  I can adjust the position on the tv but everything else is shifted off the screen like if I boot into windows 7.  The tv is a samsung dlp tv, thats all the info I have right now.  The normal resolution is 1920x1080 but then I have an overscan problem and I can't see the menu bar on the top and only part of the left bar.  I used the nvidia x server settings to change the resolution.
