Hmm. Maybe the auto-detect only works with S-video? That would make sense, actually -- I don't think the PowerBook can tell whether the composite video cable is actually plugged into anything. But with S-video, it can, and does, realize when the connection has been made.

Or maybe auto-detect only works with the mini-DVI-to-S-video adapter? The 12" PowerBook doesn't have a built-in S-video port, so we have to go out through the mini-DVI port. Perhaps there's something about that adapter that enables auto-detection of external video (like a TV or projector).

At any rate, auto-detect works for us.

Newer PowerBooks do this automatically.


How new does it have to be? She only bought it in September!
