Yes, it was related. My mistake (my first attempt at vga hell). I was
setting the blanking to cover the full overscan, but used 1 bit from the
old value (which added 64 clocks to ehb, which must have caused the 512
pixel offset).
Try http://members.optusnet.com.au/~nwaples/nvidia.c to see if it works
now. I had a quick go with the your monitor definition and it worked for
me, so hopefully....
Nick.
