I've not had much luck in the "newbie" mailing list so I thought I'd try
here.

Having done some more digging... I've found this in the cvs source for the
next xfree86 release... [#1]

Sounds like the RADEON VE is supported :o)
... but the TV out is not :o(

Does anyone have an idea as to if/when that function may be supported?
Failing that, can anyone else recommend a graphics card that does have TV
out support?

My basic requirements are value for money (you can read that as "as cheap as
possible"). But with a working TV-Out. My only other possible purchase at
the moment seems to be an Nvidia GeForce2MX using the Nvidia binary drivers
:o( something I'd rather not have to do.
