Ok, one day I decided, I've got an extra Matrox Millenium somewhere, mabey I can have a second head for X. After tinkering with the X config file, I now had a wonderful new dual headed display. My primary at 1280x1024 and the secondary at 640x480. Not Xinerama. The Matrox is only connected to an external Focus L-TV, a nice VGA to TV converter. Can you guess what I did next? That's right, I ran DISPLAY=:0.1 xawtv -f and my old Sears Solid State TV never had a picture so brilliant and crystal clear. Much better then my POS vcr can tune.
And now the problem. Ever since that day, I can nolonger use any tv application on my primary display. All I get is a black screen. Even if I turn off multihead, and only run X with one display. I even tried DISPLAY=:0.0 xawtv Is there a setting somewhere, in some config file.. Something I need to change? I tried changing things like overlay, grabdisplay, etc, etc.. Always this damn black box. But it still works perfectly on the second head. Sometimes I would like xawtv on my primary display but I can't anymore. I would ask for somebody to confirm this, but I'm afraid you might end up with the same disease. Please Help.. -Erik _______________________________________________ Video4linux-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list
