To debug X issues, you need to post your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /etc/X11/xorg.conf files. The issue could be a couple of things - X isn't using the tvout, or the resolution is set too high for the TV. So, things you'll need to work this out:
* When the screen's black, if you hit ctrl-alt-f1, do you get a text login prompt? That will confirm that it's a X problem, and not a larger issue. * What video card do you have? (NVIDIA/ATI/?, model?) * What are you using for TV-OUT? Svideo? Composite? * The aformentioned x config file and log file. dave On Sun, 2005-10-09 at 19:35 +0200, Oren Gross wrote: > I am turning to this mailing list since I have lost hope in any other > (believe me, I tried them all...). > I really need an X expert and I thought that since this group is > dealing with display quite often I might find him/her here. > My problem is that I have Toshiba 43JS9UE TV (see > http://www.toshiba.com.sg/__48256BAC0062814D.nsf/webDocuments/TSPS-64M5JZ) > and the following PC: > VoxBox-B - Accent HT-400 HTPC (Home Theater PC) Case for Full size ATX > board with front USB and fire wire ports. > I tried installing Fedora, booting Ubuntu Live CD (I also tried my > Laptop with VGA=791 in the grub) no matter what I try, once the system > start the X the screen goes black.
