hi, your XF86Config worked :-D now I can see my gnome desktop on my TV. I will try to merge with mine I have with ServerLayouts. How can I switch automatically from one ServerLayout to another? is that possible?
But I still have a problem :-( that is when I watch a movie with MPlayer It gives nothing. This is a normal behaviour but where can I switch this to work? In Windowz I had to go to display properties. thanx > On Tue, 2003-12-09 at 23:22, Michael Mauch wrote: > > Helder Rossa wrote: > > > > > I have my acer tm800 working with 2.6 kernel.
