TV manual in hand!  What information do I need?  What does each item
in the modeline represent?  I also read over the documentation below.
http://www.x.org/wiki/FAQVideoModes

It appears so that VGA max resolution is 1360x768 according to the
manual :-(  However, HDMI does allow 1920x1080p.  At this time though,
I don't have HDMI output from the PC, so I will stick with the VGA
output...
