[mythtv-users] PVR350 and X Display

[Wayne Eaker]

This is my first time creating a MythTV box, and I could use a little 
help. I'm following Jarod's guide for installing with FC1. I get through 
the PVR350 instructions for the test pattern, which works, and the 
direct TV output, which works. It looks great.

However, when I try to use his XF86Config file for sending X over to the 
TV, it doesn't work. When I hit ctl-alt-backspace to reload, all I can 
see is a black screen on the TV. X is still running, though. If I type a 
username [ENTER] and password [ENTER], I can see the hard drive churning 
like it's loading things up. If I try to switch to another console 
screen, don't get any login prompt, but I get a huge flashing cursor. I 
can type, and it moves, but it doesn't echo to the screen.

This happens both when I use the S-Video option or the Composite. Could 
the NTSC Monitor settings be different for my TV? It is a little on the 
cheap side, though the video came through perfectly. Anyone have any 
ideas for what I can try?

Thanks,
