incorrect tv-out resolution on ati x1250

[kokito]

here is the xandr output

jumba@jumba-laptop:~$ xrandr --verbose --output VGA-0 --mode 1440x900
screen 0: 2640x900 699x238 mm  95.85dpi
crtc 0:     1440x900   59.4 +0+0 "VGA-0"

obviously the screen was still black...

Is there any news?

[agd5f]

So,
xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1440x900
doesn't work?

What about any other modes? Some TV's only support a limited number of modes over VGA as HDMI or DVI are preferred.

try adding 1024x768 or 640x480, etc.
xrandr --addmode VGA-0 1024x768
xrandr --addmode VGA-0 800x600
xrandr --addmode VGA-0 640x480
xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1024x768
etc.
