Hi,
I dont know if this is a very common problem or it's just me but i cant seem to get my laptop video card (Mobility Radeon X1400) to recognize my tv. It's attached with an S-Video cable. This is what I've tried so far:
-configure xorg.conf with aticonfig --initial=dual-head and then modify xorg.conf adding these options to the second monitor:
Option "NoTV" "no"
Option "TVStandard" "PAL-B"
Option "DesktopSetup" "clone mode"
Option "TVHSizeAdj" "0"
Option "TVVSizeAdj" "0"
Option "TVHPosAdj" "0"
Option "TVVPosAdj" "0"
Option "TVHStartAdj" "0"
Option "TVColorAdj" "0"
Option "GammaCorrectionI" "0x06419064"
Option "GammaCorrectionII" "0x06419064"
Option "DesktopSetup" "0x00000100"
Option "MonitorLayout" "STV"
-configure xorg.conf normally (aticonfig --initial) and add the above options to the only monitor.
-then i tried this:
aticonfig --enable-monitor=tv
which gave me this error:
ati_dm: FGLRX_EnableDisplays failed when try to enable display: 4.
Using xorg.conf
Saved back-up to xorg.conf.fglrx-6
I really dont know what i'm doing wrong. I use 8.30.3 drivers and xorg 6.9 on Slackware 11.
I'm about to install 8.31.5 and see if it helps.
Can anyone help me please??
THANKS!!!
