I upgraded my old laptop from edgy to feisty yesterday, I only use this
laptop to view videos on my TV and the upgrade broke this completely, I
cannot get my TV-out to work anymore using the nvidia glx drivers.
the graphics hardware is the GeForce4 420 Go

Some errors in my /var/log/Xorg.0.log:
(--) NVIDIA(1): Connected display device(s) on GeForce4 420 Go at PCI:1:0:0:

I guess I will have to try an older version of the nvidia driver to see
if that fixes it...
