[Freevo-users] XFree86 using a TV.

[Jon Morris]

Well, I finally got the answer to my question about my Hitachi TV's scan rates.  Since 
I am connecting to the TV using an S-Video cable, the horizontal scan rate is the 
standard NTSC at 15.75.  Until I buy one of those nifty VGA to Component boxes, this 
will have to do.
 
My next question is regarding the setup for X.  During the Mandrake install, I can 
specify the horizontal scan rate and the Veritcal refresh rates in the custom config 
for XFree86.  Unfortunately when I input 15.75 and 60, the test fails with a generic 
error.  I assume I need to manually edit the XF86Config file.  Can someone share with 
me what I need to change?  I was thinking that if I setup X to use a standard monitor, 
and just not load on startup, I could go in and change just the monitor portion since 
my video card would already be configured (NVidia g440).
 
Hopefully soon I will be install Freevo and be able to ask questions regarding that!
 
Thanks!
Jon
