My brother has a gForce mx4000 card with TV-OUT and he would like to use his tv as viewing screen.
But I can't get it to work.
When the tv is the only connected "monitor" (via the S-VIDEO) then at startup I do get all the linux startup on the tv.
That part works fine - so we got the hardware correct (at least)
But when X (xorg) takes over then all we get is .... basically nothing.

I tried some of the setups I found on the web, stating that "this works..." - well not so here.
Have anyone here gotten TV-OUT to work on a PAL system?
I would like to see a xorg.conf for that

Thanks,
Karsten


This is what I've got working on a Leadtek nVidia 5700 via the s-video port
