Re: Bug#378594: xserver-xorg-video-ati: Can't get Radeon 7500 / Mobility M6 / RV200 TV out working
Mark, I had a similar issue, and just got my TV out working. I have an all-in-wonder radeon, and was getting bios/text output working fine, but starting X with the TV output enabled, caused both the CRT and TV to go blank. I ran across this howto: http://megahurts.dk/rune/tv_output.html The thing that worked for me was to move/remove theatre_detect_drv.so from it's current location so it doesn't get loaded. This module conflicts with the TV output module (at least on the all-in-wonder, it does). If that doesn't work, try some of the other troubleshooting items from the link. Hope that helps.

I'd prefer if this was handled upstream. On a quick glance, it looks like this is still rather hackish and not suitable for inclusion though. Just as some examples, TV out should be handled the same way as the other output types, and I don't think Xv attributes is the right solution for the TV settings. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://tungstengraphics.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer

Could you please use this patch: http://shell.world-net.co.nz/~knightw/tvout/ http://megahurts.dk/rune/tv_output.html and maybe upload the package to experimental? Regards, Vedran Furač
