Sto cercando di far funzionare il TVout del mio IBM ThinkPad T40 sotto PCLinuxOS.
Nel passato, con Mepis (e XFree86) funzionava (male) con atitvout.
Qui con xorg non sembra funzionare.
Ho trovato queste istruzioni, pero'.
E anche queste.
Ci devo provare.
c'e' poi un tipo sul forum di pclinuxos che ha fatto cosi':
Ran XFdrake:
Selected "ATI Radeon (fglrx)"
Answered YES to "proprietary" driver prompt
Took defaults for the card options / startup:
Graphic card options ____________________
|*| 3D hardware acceleration
| | Enable Translucency (Composite extension)
Graphical interface at startup ____________________
|*| Automatically start the graphical interface (Xorg) upon booting
Selected generic monitor 800x600 @ 60 Hz 24bpp.
Ran startx
The desktop came up on the TV, monitor went black.
Opened up a Konsole session and everything locked up.
I then booted back into text mode and ran XFdrake again and unchecked the "3D hardware acceleration" and rebooted.
The display came up on the TV and everything seems to work ok (no lockups so far).
I also ran the "/usr/X11R6/bin/fireglcontrolpanel" and selected clone mode for the 2 displays. After restarting X, both the
TV & the monitor were active.
When I get time I'll experiment some more and try to load MythTV, but right now I'm pretty impressed with GBPVR.
