Hello
Count me in too. I also tried different versions in the last 2 years. Using 
Suse and compiling myself. Now I use Fedora FC4 and packages from atrpms (they 
work like a charm, thanks Axel).
The only difference is, when I only connect the 9-pin to s-video, so without 
the composite, I get a picture but it is almost colourless.
The same thing goes for me with the settings for "-l". 0 = composite, 1 = black 
????, 2 = composite instead of S-Video.
I can confirm that my cables/connectors/tv-set using a DVD and a digital camera 
produce s-video are working approriate.
S-Video looks much better than composite, where the picture travels a little 
bit. I hope that someone has an idea to solve this problem or give any pointers 
where to search. I hope I can help, because my last kernel programming is about 
20 years ago.
