Television is Sharp FlatX Standard TV, its specifications can be found at http://www.amazon.com/Sharp-X-Flat-32F630-Flat-Screen-32/dp/B0000AKVAV
There were other screen sections which I removed. The TV shows just distorted image with just particles of different colors.
I tried different resolution but did not figure out. Kindly help me how to setup TV with Ubuntu. I am newbie to this and not aware of subtle technicalities. Thanks indeed.
