Hi all, I hope this is the right list to ask some questions and try to learn how to use the TV Out S-Video port. If not please direct me to the right list.
I have a machine that has the ATI 9100 IGP chipset in it. I have no monitor attached, BIOS is set to display using S-Video, the machine boots correctly, I see all the boot messages on my TV and can use the computer in the console just fine watching the TV so at least the hardware is working. Right now my questions are mainly about how to set up the configuration file. When I run xorgconfig there really aren't any questions about using the TV Out port so how do I go about setting it up? Are there any example files online that show how to set this up from scratch? Do I pretend that I'm doing to use a monitor and then modify the config file by hand? When I attempt to start X with no /etc/X11/xorg.cong file I hear the machine doing some work and then my TV screen goes blue and I see nothing else from there on. I can ssh into the machine and look at the log file while is attached below. Anyway, if folks have some idea about how to do this I'd really appreciate some pointers. Distro is Gentoo, 2.6.29-gentoo-r5, xorg-server-1.5.3-r6, xf86-video-ati-6.12.1-r1. Thanks, Mark
