Ok so I have been wondering about the screen resolutions

I have a 60 inch standard resolution screen

I found this in the FAQs

actually, there kinda is but I didn't find out about it until a while ago though, although the text is still an issue

For Gentoo (and pretty sure the other Distros as well) you have to edit kboot.conf and changge video=ps3fb:mode:1 to video=ps3fb:mode:129, and reboot
there is also a way to Dither it by adding 2048 to that number I believe

It will actualy make the res from 576x384 to 720x480

However, on my TV the picture becomes Larger than my screen xD so it's the opposite problem as the former

But it's okay since I mostly just use it to watch videos in mplayer and can just make a window that barely tuches inside my TV's "borders"

Is there a way to CHOOSE the VESA MODE XGA ??? because that would get my screen to the right aspect ratio and still make it usuable on my 60inch

i don't think so, because a standard TV can only support 480i, either blocked or fullscreen
