I reinstalled everything and rolled back to 6111 drivers.  I'm still 
getting black when booting into X. 
However+ if i change the XF config file for just the monitor than it 
works.  If i change the config for just the TV than it doesn't work.  
The card works fine in WIndows with tv output.  Am i doing something wrong?
