[Bug 738352] Re: xrandr S-video video mode not changeable
Hello, I m a bit new to Linux so I suppose I m just spelling wrong the command and it is not a bug. My tv only accepts PAL-M or NTSC-M but all distros I tried come set to PAL. I've been trying different spells to xrandr and have been receiving different error messages, none of them equal to the one benste recieved "X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)". I'v seen a few pages and tutorials about xrandr but could not figure out the correct spell. Could anyone please tell me if is it my mistake or a real bug. I ran xrandr --verbose and it say PAL-M and NTSC-M are supported. I'm running Mint 9 isadora LXDE w/ nouveau driver on a NVidia FX-5200 card and haven't have any success neither with the command after a plain installation nor after updating as many packages as possible (even some not recommended). I also tried Mint 12 lxde, debian AMD64 LXDE and a few others w/ no success. I also installed some GUI for xrandr but haven't found one that have this option. Here a few examples of what I tried and the errors messages I got: gustavo@familiafeliz ~ $ xrandr --output TV-1 --mode PAL-M xrandr: cannot find mode PAL-M gustavo@familiafeliz ~ $ xrandr --output TV-1 --set TV-MODE PAL-M X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist) Major opcode of failed request: 150 (RANDR) Minor opcode of failed request: 11 (RRQueryOutputProperty) Serial number of failed request: 27 Current serial number in output stream: 27 gustavo@familiafeliz ~ $ xrandr --output TV-1 --set TV-STANDARD PAL-M X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist) Major opcode of failed request: 150 (RANDR) Minor opcode of failed request: 11 (RRQueryOutputProperty) Serial number of failed request: 27 Current serial number in output stream: 27 gustavo@familiafeliz ~ $ xrandr --output TV-1 --set tv_standard pal-m X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist) Major opcode of failed request: 150 (RANDR) Minor opcode of failed request: 11 (RRQueryOutputProperty) Serial number of failed request: 27 Current serial number in output stream: 27 I'll really appreciate if anyone could tell me how to solve that problem. Apart from that Linux is running PERFECT and has brought back a lot of vitality to my old PC .

Ok, and just one more: xrandr --output DVI-D-1 --set "scaling mode" None works, so my idea that this was only for non-numeric values can be discarded, it seems to only affect output TV-1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/738352 Title: xrandr S-video video mode not changeable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/738352/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

One more thing, I was previously using the nvidia driver on 10.10 that's no longer supported on 11.04, so I'm not sure if this bug existed on 10.10. I can do a parallel install if needed to check if it's a regression. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/738352 Title: xrandr S-video video mode not changeable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/738352/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
