The 'latest' cvs-version of nuvalo's x11 cube-module has to be compiled in order to get Xorg working after dist-upgrading debian from etch to lenny. I have 42" wide-screen TV connected to wii with YPbPr-cabel. With my hardware setup the compiled cube-driver fucks up the visibility of screen borders. In order to lower my y-resolution I had to modify several lines from the cube-driver.c and recompile it. All in all this required several hours of investigation & testing, and even google turned me down. So in near future expect to see a short tutorial how to get, hack, compile and install cube-driver.c with the resolution of your choice!
