<br>takes a while for anything to show up on the screen. The Linux console<br>doesn't know how to output to the TV so it won't display anything<br>until X starts. Perhaps you're simply not waiting long enough.<br><br>BTW, don't bother with 915resolution for svideo out. It doesn't apply
<br>here. Don't worry about adding modelines until there is something<br>output on your TV.<br><br>-emmanuel</pre></blockquote><br>Thanks for avoiding me useless hours with 915 resolution and modelines.<br>As your recommend me, i have downloaded latest git i810 driver.
<br>I have waited long, long, enough :) but nothing happens.<br>I will give a second try to your previously posted xorg.conf.<br>Maybe your Xorg.0.log would be useful.<br><br>-- <br>Jose Angel Alvarez Perez<br><br>
