Hello,
I didn't get any response on the ubuntu forums (
http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=216954 ) , so trying
here:
I've an ASROCK 776 twins HDTV (
http://www.asrock.com/product/775Twins-HDTV.htm ) motherboard with
integrated Radeon Xpress 200 graphics, w/ _component_ tv out. I got it
running nicely on my HDTV under XP using powerstrip and generated a
modeline info as follows:
Code:
PowerStrip timing parameters:
1920x1080=1920,133,40,331,1080,4,10,31,154338,9
Generic timing details for 1920x1080:
HFP=133 HSW=40 HBP=331 kHz=64 VFP=4 VSW=10 VBP=31 Hz=57
VESA detailed timing:
PClk=154338.00 H.Active=1920 H.Blank=504 H.Offset=117 HSW=40
V.Active=1080 V.Blank=45 V.Offset=4 VSW=10
Linux modeline parameters:
"1920x1080" 154.338 1920 2053 2093 2424 1080 1084 1094 1125 interlace +hsync +vs
I'm running the following fglrx drivers:
Code:
mythtv at htpc:~$ fglrxinfo
display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: RADEON XPRESS 200 Series Generic
OpenGL version string: 2.0.5814 (8.25.18)
...and at the bottom is my unadulterated xorg.conf. Could someone
please tell me what I need to add to get it outputting to my TV?
I think I need to change the monitor section to:
Code:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Generic Monitor"
HorizSync 28.0 - 80.0
VertRefresh 59.9 - 60.1
Option "DPMS"
Modeline "1920x1080" 154.338 1920 2053 2093 2424 1080 1084
1094 1125 interlace +hsync +vs
EndSection
Although I don't know what HorizSync should be. I also assume I add
1920x1080 to the first screen section.
But this didn't work -- it didn't display on my _monitor_ (which is
capable of it under windows) -- it just defaulted back to 1280x1024,
and nothing comes out the TV out. This isn't surprising however, as I
can't see where you tell it to turn on tv out at all!
Why do I have two monitor and screen sections?
Any help much appreciated,
Tom
