Hi,
I am runnig Gentoo 2004.3 (kernel 2.6.11-rc5) on my iBook G4. One issue I still have is the mini-dvi out. It does work, if I use the mini-dvi->vga adapter that shipped with the iBook in conjunction with a standard (?) vga cable (pin 5 is missing). It does not work if I use another vga cable (pin 9 is missing). This is annoying since I have a 10m cable where pin 9 is missing connected to my beamer which does work only if i fire up OSX :-( Any hints where the "mode" of the dvi out could be tuned to use this cable? Ok, another issue with this mini dvi out is that neither opengl nor xv work properly if an external display is connected. xshm is correctly cloned on both displays, but it is too slow when it comes to scaling to watch movies in fullscreen. This is a minor annoyance and does not matter if I cannot use the cable anyway :-( Thanks. -- [email protected] mailing list
