"""
To get the X11 screen displayed properly it takes two steps:

- force the resolution with xrandr -s 1440x900
- set the TV to 16:9 mode

So there should be a way to enforce a given resolution under Ubuntu.

Can you not do this with the Screen Resolution capplet? If not, maybe this should be filed as a wishlist bug against those config tools?

As to the flickering, please file a separate bug on that issue.
