if you new LCD with HDMI use it to connect your HDMI output of the ION 
board with your TV.
Works perfectly here. Xorg works perfectly with it (even sound over hdmi 
had worked till I upgrade the firware of my Denon receiver :( ).

Here the settings from my xorg.conf:
Section "Monitor"
    Identifier   "Monitor0"
    VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
    ModelName    "Monitor Model"
EndSection
Section "Device"
    Identifier  "Card0"
    Driver      "nvidia"
    VendorName  "nVidia Corporation"
    BoardName   "Unknown Board"
    BusID       "PCI:3:0:0"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
    Identifier "Screen0"
    Device     "Card0"
    Monitor    "Monitor0"
    SubSection "Display"
       Viewport   0 0
       Depth     1
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
       Viewport   0 0
       Depth     4
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
       Viewport   0 0
       Depth     8
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
       Viewport   0 0
       Depth     15
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
       Viewport   0 0
       Depth     16
    EndSubSection
    SubSection "Display"
       Viewport   0 0
       Depth     24
    EndSubSection
EndSection

I use the  xineliboutput plugin.

Bye,
Matthias
