Bug Description

Binary package hint: nvidia-settings

After enabling tv-out and setting it to clone mode, nvidia-settings refuses to save the overscan option for my TV. Setting it in the GUI is fine, but after reboot/restart of X it is forgotten. It seems there is a option "overscan" with values between 0.0 and 1.0, but I'm not sure where this applies to xorg.conf

Apparently the option is named "TVOverScan". Oddly enough, it seems nvidia-settings remember the value in the GUI but does not write it to xorg.conf. So where is that value kept?

Hi sopues,

Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file from after reproducing this issue. If you've made any customizations to your /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well.
