trouble outputting to TV


Hey All:

I am having trouble with my linux box's video card output. More specifically, I am using the S-Video out on my video card (info to follow) to run into my RCA-TOCOM-1616190B Television. Initially, when I turn the computer on, I can see the startup on the screen, but it is VERY jumpy. ( I can supply a .mov of this 'jumpy-ness' if anyone would like to understand what I'm saying better ) I would like to hook this up for a few things: 1) routine maintenence on the machine that I cannot do from the shell... e.g., once and a while my wlan0 device goes down, so I cannot shell in, 2) output videos to my television. I am running Fedora Core 4 and I will provide some specifications below:

output of /sbin/lspci:


00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX Host bridge (rev 03)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX AGP bridge (rev 03)
00:07.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ISA (rev 02)
00:07.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE (rev 01)
00:07.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 USB (rev 01)
00:07.3 Bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 02)
00:0e.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq ES1371 [AudioPCI-97] (rev 06)
00:0f.0 Ethernet controller: D-Link System Inc DL10050 Sundance Ethernet (rev 12)
00:10.0 Communication controller: Conexant HCF 56k Data/Fax Modem (rev 08)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x] (rev a2)


Kernel: Fedora Core (2.6.11-1.1369_FC4)


Please let me know if anyone has any suggestions or would like any further information.

Thank you.

-Dave
