I had a quick look at the code, and I see that in ch7006_encoder_detect the routine returns "connector_status_disconnected" when it can't find any matching pattern in the load detection. With nvtv, I had plenty of experiences with a really weird connection status from Chrontel chips, for whatever reason. I've also seen there are no delays between the register writes to do the detections as recommended in the data sheet, so the values might not have settled. I didn't follow up on how the "connector_status_disconnected" value is used in the callers, but if it causes suppression of the TV-1 connector, this could be the problem. Maybe add a few debug statements to verify that?

You can program the DACs to output RGB instead of Y/C/CVBS, but you'll still need to get at the CSYNC signal to make a SCART-RGB-connection to a TV with a SCART-input. If you're lucky, it's in the proprietary Dell output somewhere. Connecting it to a VGA-Monitor might be harder, the timing is still PAL/NTSC, not anything VGA is used to, and the sync signals are wrong IIRC. Or do you mean the VGA-connector on the Dell can also output the TV signal? In this case, the Dell may have some extra hardware to switch between signals, which will be difficult to find and program (and which also may explain any weird connection status). - Dirk _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
