Hi All,

Can someone tell me the magic incantations needed to get a signal out of the
the s-video port on my new box please. I presume alts are needed to
xorg.conf followed by a reboot.

I have had a 2nd monitor running as a clone so far  I am running
mandriva2008.0 on this box.

TIA

Barry




Come on Barry tell us some more info. What video card is it? What
driver dies it use?


lspci (part) gives...
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82852/82855 GM/GME/PM/GMV Processor to I/O Controller (rev 02) 00:00.1 System peripheral: Intel Corporation 82852/82855 GM/GME/PM/GMV Processor to I/O Controller (rev 02) 00:00.3 System peripheral: Intel Corporation 82852/82855 GM/GME/PM/GMV Processor to I/O Controller (rev 02) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)

Knoppix5 gives basically the same info except that the 1st, 4th & 5th above are all listed as Processor to I/O Controllers

It only appears to have loaded video module??

I tried setting xrandr but could not make any sense of it. xranrdr -q only shows screen 0

And why would changes to xorg.conf need a reboot? you only need to restart X.
True if you know what you are doing, new toy, 1st trial so start at the beginning
