Never mounted a TV, but mounted ur mam just fine.
Was thinking of just mounting one side onto a stud and the other with toggle bolts. Is that sufficient enough?

I have no experience with mounting TVs (heh, great thread for me to be giving advice in, eh?), but my gut tells me this is risky. Might hold fine with no disturbances, but I'd be worried about all the stresses associated with moving the TV on the mount stand and such.
Also, be mindful to not mount too high and hurt yer neck.
Got a strong magnet around? You can usually find where the nails/screws are in the plaster/drywall by using a magnet. I've used an old harddrive magnet before.

Yeah, I've used a couple of stud finders; one electronic and one magnet. I've gotten different readings on both, even if I run them along vertically. So I decided to drill some holes and the bit just flew through.

On an old-fashioned plaster and lathe wall, the lathe is likely to have been steel and it would be magnetic all around.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, too. I keep getting readings in places I'm also positive there are no studs.
