    Some progress to report. I can get the X server to start now with:

    Option "ForceMonitors" "notv"

    I saw some Ubuntu bugs about a similar problem and figured I'd try their solution.

    This of course defeats my purposes so I need to figure out now how to get both crt1 and tv working and mirroring. Using "ForceMonitors" "crt1,tv" and "DesktopSetup" "clone" just gets me back to the "no screens" problem.

    X -configure's crash still happens and may be a separate issue, but I'm not sure it'll directly affect this setup.

    EDIT: "DesktopSetup" "mirror" is what I should have had. X will now start, but no picture on the CRT. So my quest has morphed from a "drat, X won't start" to a "how do I get the blasted TV-Out to work." If anybody has a working xorg.conf to share, much appreciated. Here's a device section that doesn't work:
    Code:
            Driver      "fglrx"
            Option      "VideoOverlay" "on"
            Option      "TVStandard" "VIDEO"
            Option      "TVFormat" "NTSC-M"
            Option      "DesktopSetup" "mirror"
            Option      "EnableMonitor" "tv,crt1"
            Option      "HSync2" "30-50"
            Option      "VRefresh2" "60"
            Option      "ForceMonitors" "crt1,tv"

      I think I spoke too soon. Based on some further experimentation I can crash fglrx just on startup. Using the configuration generated by:

      aticonfig --initial=dual-head --input=/etc/X11/xorg.conf --tvf=NTSC --tvs=VIDEO --hsync2=30-50 --vrefresh2=60 --ovon=1 -v

      I get the xorg.conf as follows:

      Code:

                      Depth     24
                      Modes "800x600@60"
              EndSubSection
      EndSection
      
      Section "Screen"

                      Modes "800x600@60"
              EndSubSection
      EndSection
      and then the driver crashes:

      Code:
      (EE) fglrx(0): PreInitDAL failed
      (EE) fglrx(0): R200PreInit failed

        Hi all,
        great script! I have been trying to get my 8200LE card going for ages!

        I have one small snag. Heres the output of the script where it fails. This one has got me to a dead end..

        I've had to chop most of the output out as it's quite long and wont fit in a post, but here goes.

          Did you compile the kernel yourself, or what version are you using (uname -a)?

          It's having a problem with the kernel.

            Thanks for the quick reply Michael. The kernel is just an everyday vanilla rpm package Here's the output of uname -a:

            [root@blackbraes Desktop]# uname -a
            Linux blackbraes 2.6.18-1.2849.fc6 #1 SMP Fri Nov 10 12:36:14 EST 2006 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

            Here's some additional info on kernel packages:

            [root@blackbraes Desktop]# rpm -qa | grep kernel
            kernel-devel-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6
            kernel-headers-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6
            kernel-devel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.stk16

            kernel-headers-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6


            I could always reboot into the older kernel and see if it compiles in there...

              Yes, see if it compiles in the older kernel. Last time I worked on that script it had built fine (original FC6 kernel). I can also update the script if needed if it turns out to be a issue introduced in the new kernel.

                I rebooted into the older kernel. The results, though not conclusive look slightly better than last time. Here's the output this time:

                    Thanks Michael,

                    I thought I had seen that error before somewhere on this forum.

                    If I compile to rpms in the older kernel, will they still work in the new one - or will I need to somehow get it to compile in the new one.

                      Funny thing is, I actually have all the qt stuff installed. What package handles g++?
