Hi
Morten,
Here
are the configuration files for the two setups. Both have been installed
following Jarod Wilsons guide.
My
own MythTV runs on FC1 with MythTV 0.16 and the attachments modules.conf and
XF86Config are from that PC.
The
other MythTV runs on FC3 with MythTV 0.17 and the attachments modprobe.conf and
xorg.conf are from that PC.
I do
not remember all details in the files but here are some
comments:
-
XF86Config, Section Module: I added vnc to be able of remote control the
display. I also think that I added the v4l line but I am not sure. I had to
comment out the glx line. Otherwise the system would freeze on startup. So no
OpenGL acceleration on that PC.
-
XF86Config, Section ServerFlags: I added this section to turn the screen saver
off
-
XF86Config, Section Monitor: I added the "TVOutput" option. Some of the
Options in the "Monitor" and "Device" sections can be placed in either
section.
-
XF86Config, Section Device: I changed the driver to "nvidia" and downloaded it
according to Jarods guide. It works with the options "TVStandard", "TVOutFormat"
and "ConnectedMonitor", while I have not been able to make "RenderAccel"
(freezes the system) and "TVOverScan" work. Make sure that the TV is connected
when the PC is started even though you use the
"ConnectedMonitor".
- XF86Config, Section
Screen: I added the option for the vnc passwordfile.
- modules.conf: There is
an alias for the nvidia driver. I am not sure that I added that, so probably the
installation did that automatically.
- xorg.conf, Section
Module: Again I added vnc and v4l. This PC runs with glx without
problems.
- xorg.conf, Section
ServerFlags: Added to turn screen saver off.
- xorg.conf, Section
Device: Again the driver is "nvidia" and I use the options "TVStandard",
"TVOutFormat" and "ConnectedMonitor". Note that this PC uses a FX5200 with both
composite and S-Video connectors. Both are used, one goes to the main TV,
while the other goes via a VHS to three other TVs. I am not sure that the
"TVOutFormat" has any effect. Apparently the board detects which connectors are
used during startup and uses only
those.
- xorg.conf, Section
Screen: Again the vnc password
file.
- modprobe.conf: Again
an alias for the nvidia kernel
module.
I also turned off the
screen saver a couple of places in the window managers and in the BIOS of the
PCs.
Best
regards
