I have not any monitor using DVI interface, so cannot check it. 
Maybe I can check VGA interface to connect Sharp TV ?
Does this can help you ?
Thanks.

Based on HDMI spec each HDMI source should provide HDMI identity, which is
stored in CEA extension, otherwise we may think it is not HDMI device. So we
also can detect HDMI device by trying to fetch EDID.

Thanks for your hellp.

Yes, the patched versions (in my case, they are built from version 2.7.1 and 2.7.99.901+git20090610.9d3c3b05) can detect my TV and can set resolution to 1360x768 @ 60Hz.

 xrandr report:

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1360 x 768, maximum 1360 x 1360
VGA disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI-1 connected 1360x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 820mm x 460mm
