Thanx for the instructions. It could not have been easier. A simple make and then
./atitvout t Got my text console on the tv. The X did not start but I guess that is to do with the monitor section. Will try that out later in the day and post the result. - Pranay -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Iain Thomas Sent: Saturday, May 25, 2002 7:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Xpert]Svideo out ATI On Sat, 25 May 2002, Pranay Kumar wrote: > I would love to... but unfortunately I cant make a head or tail from > this page.. > -----Original Message----- > Sent: Saturday, May 25, 2002 5:32 PM > you should get yourself the atitvout package. from > www.stud.uni-hamburg.de/users/ lennart/projects/atitvout/ and give it a Quick summary: Download http://www.stud.uni-hamburg.de/users/lennart/projects/atitvout/atitvout- 0.2b.tar.gz Extract & compile it (just run make). Probably best to boot with the TV lead disconnected, and only connect it immediately before trying the detect line. Then as root: (quick interpretation of the help/readme.) ./atitvout detect # should list connected displays ./atitvout lt # should enable Lcd and Tv out (if it works) ./atitvout l # should enable the Lcd. Note the warning in the readme; you may not be able to have TV out enabled at the same time as the LCD. Of course, read the readme file, and look at the help (./atitvout help). Start with text-mode (i.e. no X), to check the utility works; you should be able to connect/disconnect the TV lead and see different results from detect. You should be able to enable/disable the TV-out, and then try it with X. Good luck.
