isn't this the usual tv overscan problem where some percentage of the border
of a tv signal is not guaranteed to be visible on any given screen?

Subject: Shark on TV
Hi folks...
I just plopped one of my Sharks onto the TV in the living room, and
was sort of surprised to see that it chops of quite a lot of the
screen edges when using the "TV" (composite video?) output...
Couple of questions:
(1) Is the OpenFirmware screen chopping curable?
(2) Is there a way to configure X so that the screen won't
be chopped off?
(3) Will the pccons console work, like, _at all_ using the
TV output?
(4) How come none of this is in the FAQ? :-)
