If you have not solved the problem yet,

right after you boot up and see the lines,

(with the lines visible on the screen) run this:

#!/bin/bash
grep modesetting /var/log/kern.log > vid
grep Modeline /var/log/Xorg.0.log >> vid 
xrandr >> vid
and then show us "vid"

I wasn't able to find "modesetting" in kern.log (also grepped the older rotated files). There were a ton of "Modeline" matches in Xorg.0.log, but I think the following is better info.

As I said before, troubleshooting this is a pain, because the problem goes away until the system "sleeps" the vid output. However, I was able to check it this morning.

I did a "tail -F Xorg.0.log", and hit return a couple of times to give me some spacing between old output and new. Then I turned on the TV. When it did it's sync up, this is what was written to Xorg.0.log...

Here's the output of xranr. (I didn't think to run that command before I'd fixed the refresh after doing the above. I'll try it again tonight to see if it changes when it is screwed up.
