Greetings Everyone,
I have been searching for an answer to my problem for about a week using Google. I have not found any threads on any forums that resolve this problem. I am currently running Slackware 12.1 on Linux kernel 2.6.27.5. I believe that the resolution I am outputting to S-video is the culprit. When I try to add a resolution to S-video output I get this error:
Code:
xrandr --addmode S-video 640x480
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 155 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request: 18 ()
Serial number of failed request: 16
Current serial number in output stream: 17
Here is some other pertinent information:

I have tried adding a new modeline created with gtf to S-video output. It allows the output to be created, but then does not recognize it when I try to add that mode. Here is the output:
Code:
xrandr --newmode "640x480_60.00" 23.86 640 656 720 800 480 481 484 497 -HSync +Vsync
xrandr --output S-video --mode 640x480_60.00
xrandr: cannot find mode 640x480_60.00
xrandr --addmode S-video 640x480_60.00
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 155 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request: 18 ()

Have I missed something or are there limitations to what outputs I can use for S-video? I am fairly new to configuration of video cards and utilizing outputs, and I would appreciate any help that I can get.
