I first used the vesa fbdev mode, and then switched to X first using the vesa module and after that i used the gatos ati module, but that one was hacked up further then the original gatos module to support various tv-out stuff ...

Again, I ask the same thing here because I saw similar question on the web and no one aswered even the auhors :(((( Is it actually possible for ATI card owner to use fbdev with TVOUT ??? The question may look trivial, BUT the problem is that ATI card automagically switch to TV frequencies when only a TV is plugged on the card and no vga monitors is plugged. So I can see the bios, lilo boot and the linux fb consol on my tv without any problem. But when I launch freevo, it change the resolution and/or frequecies and my TV can't display anything !!!! In freevo 1.3.x, it worked very well and since I upgraded to 1.4.1 it does not work anymore. I looked a little the source code and the problem seems to came from pygame display object. It seems to be unable to use the current fbdev mode (the one used for the console) and open a new screen instead.... To bad because it make the graphic card lose the TV resolution ! :(((( So Does I need to stay to Freevo 1.3 if I want tvout with fbedev ? Is there's a way to tell freevo to use the EXACT same resolutions and frequencies than the console use ? please help... or at least tell me something ("not possible", "in next version", or anything else) ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.
