First of all, I don't believe you want to run your laptop LCD with 720x576i mode. The LCD is always progressive and it would look terrible even you didn't scale it to full screen. And LCD refresh rate is something else than 50Hz. And LCD displays look good only when running in native resolution. Second thing is that TV-out usually generates itself right timings and interlaced image. How it is enabled depends your HW, setup and what you want. With nvidia we have twinview and X comes with xinerama and then we have xrandr. So to get real PAL, NTSC or whatever video format is wanted is done with HW. I believe you have to just use Option lines enable the TV-out. And xorg.conf can also tell the display be 720x576 as eextended or scale the desktop or just take part of the screen. I used to have rectangle in background image which was sent to TV-out :) But really good X configuration help site would be great. Now that you are really going to learn the configuration of X, you should make it thoroughly :) If you are good with html, you could create xorg.conf generator which asks resolutions and order of monitors and which driver to use and then create simple xorg.conf with different server layouts. Like xinerama, mirror, TV-out as extended desktop and TV-out as part of desktop, TV-out as mirror of desktop.

[CinCV] Modeline for PAL etc
I'm searching for a modeline/xrandr spell to turn my laptop video (intel GM965/GL960) out to native PAL (interlaced). Anyone knows such one off hand? (would be nice to make some webpage for different kinds of SD and HD formats and graphic cards available, I can set such a page up when we get a collection here) Christian ___ Cinelerra mailing list Cinelerra@skolelinux.no https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra
