Alright guys... I think I'm narrowing down the problem a bit now that I was
able to view the XFree86.0.log log file. Here's what I'm seeing in the log:
------------------------------------------------------
XFree86 Version 4.3.0 (Red Hat Linux release: 4.3.0-2)
Release Date: 27 February 2003
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0, Release 6.6
Build Operating System: Linux 2.4.20-3bigmem i686 [ELF]
Build Date: 27 February 2003
Build Host: porky.devel.redhat.com
Before reporting problems, check http://www.XFree86.Org/
to make sure that you have the latest version.
Module Loader present
OS Kernel: Linux version 2.4.20-18.9 (bhcompile at porky.devel.redhat.com) (gcc
version 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)) #1 Thu May 29 07:08:16 EDT
2003
Markers: (--) probed, (**) from config file, (==) default setting,
(++) from command line, (!!) notice, (II) informational,
(WW) warning, (EE) error, (NI) not implemented, (??) unknown.
(==) Log file: "/var/log/XFree86.0.log", Time: Sat Jul 12 15:06:32 2003
(==) Using config file: "/etc/X11/XF86Config"
Data incomplete in file /etc/X11/XF86Config
Undefined Device "Videocard0" referenced by Screen "Screen0".
(EE) Problem parsing the config file
(EE) Error from xf86HandleConfigFile()
Fatal server error:
no screens found
------------------------------------------------------
So from the looks of it, it's not so much my "Videocard0" section that's the
problem... as it's my "Screen0" section that may be the issue here. By no
means do I even claim to be able to diagnose problems like these, so I'll
leave it in the skilled hands of someone that knows what they're looking at
:) So I'm pasting my full XF86Config file below.

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the

# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"

# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:

# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"

# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and

Any obvious stuff I'm missing in here that would be giving me these TV-out
problems?? Many thanks again for any help!
