            -> update Alsa to Alsa 1.0.21-4
            All done with the VGA monitor.
            LCD TV is also connected to the mobo's HDMI video output.
            Running nvidia-settings, LCD TV identified. 
            After all is done (installations and reboots), KDE shows up, i disconnect the vga cable, hit CTRL-ALT-Backspace and
            the video output is redirected to HDMI.
