In windows there are widescreen modes on the NVidia cards, using one of
these in conjunction with TV out and a widescreen TV should correct your
aspect ratio (doesn't look too good on a monitor but if you are running it
dedicated#. I guess it is just a case of recreating one of these resolution
settings in your x configs. I don't know about FB.

I was using a Dxr3 which has hardware support for 16:9 and 4:3 so it was
just a mode setting.

 I got at home and thomson 16:9 100mhz and I wonder how can I put the
tv-out in 16:9, so the 16:9 movies will fit the screen, just like it was
when playing a dvdfrom a dvd player??
 Any body got some working ideas??

Hi,

I think a lot of the issues with skew and/or rotation are to a great
deal a matter of the tv, and not the video cards. I have a Thomson 28
wide and observed a slight rotation of the picture. I then started to
watch more closely on broadcasts that have horizontal material, like
stock market info scrolling in the top or bottom of the screen. Looks
like they are also off a bit, so I concluded that it is my tv that is
rotated. 
It also shows a stretch in the picture when not overscanning. This
stretch moves a bit according to picture content. If I put a 4:3 signal
in 16:9 format on the tv the strech becomes worse. I guess that a lot of
the problems are caused by the analog components in the signal path not
beeing ideal. It is a bit annoying once you know the picture is
distorted, but a slight overscan usually makes you forget about the
whole matter pretty fast.
