Per my follow-up from the other day, when I use 'krandr' now, instead of "TV-1" not being accessible at all, now it shows me "TV-1" as connected when the S-video is plugged in. So that's progress! However, the TV itself still doesn't show anything, even when I configure TV-1 (e.g., 800x600). -bill! _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list vox-tech@lists.lugod.org http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
