OK, after all the great help, I reconfigured the LIRC mouse daemon, got 
some other stuff changed, updated via Debian, shut down X, started it up 
again, and got a gibberish screen that doesn't give TV-out.  Heck, it 
doesn't even show up on my (incredibly old) monitor, and it worked like a 
champ before I shut down X.  Something that I updated via debian must have 
screwed with the thing, but my config files look the same.

My free Rage 128 is, to be frank, driving me FREEKIN' BERSERK.  The only 
way I could even get TV-out working is by jumping through hoops to compile 
a discarded branch of the gatos CVS tree.  This is ludicrous.

What, in your opinions, is the best, most solid, easiest to configure 
TV-out card for Linux?  I'd like something that lets me adjust the usual 
business of color/contrast/saturation/etc on the tv-out, if possible, and 
has decent 2d acceleration (/hug mame).

I've heard good things about the Matrox G400 Max, although every one I've 
seen on eBay looks like it has two VGA outs and no visible tv-out; am I 
missing something?  I don't think I can justify a scan converter.

Are the NVidias better?  I have no qualms about the NV linux drivers.

I also want a relatively cheap card; I've seen the G400s go for about #30 
on eBay, and I could do that.

But this R128 is driving me berserk and has since day 1.  I may not even 
bother fixing it this time.  Suggestions would be highly welcome.
