xawtv and fullscreen

[Joerg Johannes <j-j@gmx.de>]

Hi list

A friend has boorowed me his Hauppauge TV-Card, so I installed xawtv, got 
everything working, only one thing is not perfect:
The man page for xawtvrc(5) shows an example for a modeline to put in the 
/etc/X11/XF86Config. If I'm right, Modelines are not necessary any more with 
XF86-4.1 . So, how can I get this (from the man page):

Modeline  "pal"  50.00  768 832 856 1000  576 590 595 630  -hsync -vsync

to work with my brand new XF86-4.1 ?
Simply putting the resolution into the conffiles does not do the job - xawtv 
does not switch the resolution. If I put fullscreen 800x600 into ~/.xawtvrc, 
the resolution changes to 800x600, but I have a black frame around the tv 
image.
Any ideas?

thanks a lot
