whelp, I've come to the conclusions that getting the correct resolution with my TV and ION board will not work with sound (through HDMI). Turns out that when I add the option;
Option "UseEDID" "False"
I get the correct resolution but there is no sound coming from my HDMI cable to my TV. I have a VIZIO L37HDTV. So I guess I will have to deal with the crappy overscanned resolution. I even went as far as to acquire the EDID, edit it, and then tell xorg.conf to use the custom EDID. I used instructions from here http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=129247 and here http://analogbit.com/node/23
I'm giving up
Here is the xorg.conf that sets the correct resolution (boy does it look nice) but gives me no sound
If anyone can figure this out I'd appreciate the help, been dealing with this for over 8 hours now
