For a while I was trying to get Myth running under Mandriva 2008.0 on a 690G board, and there I was able to get TV-OUT to work, at least in the regular video mode. However, there were problems with Myth.
So I installed Mythbuntu 8.10 and Myth works, but now TV out won't go. amdccle sometimes shows the TV option, but grayed out. It shows the driver as 8.54.3.
The TV is hooked up with both an S-video and Composite cable, but nothing ever shows up there. The BIOS is set to "CRT Force, TV Force".
sudo aticonfig --initial --force-monitor=crt1,tv --tvf NTSC-M --tvs VIDEO
Found fglrx primary device section
Warning: Failed to set tv format immediately.
Warning: Option 'ForceMonitors' doesn't affect running session.
Warning: Option 'TVStandard' doesn't affect running session.
Using xorg.conf
Saved back-up to xorg.conf.fglrx-9
but nothing on the TV, even after reboot.
What magic incantaion do I need to employ to turn TV-OUT on for this driver/distro?
Thanks
