Given the settings on other post, I was able to change the ff: but still no luck. BTW, I'm using Redhat 9.0 and Nvidia Gforce MX4000. I have an Svideo outout, directly connected to the TV. I was able to see that there's a TV configured but the display on the TV is just plain blue screen.

This is my device section. (Xorg, Slackware 10.2)

Try adding the "Options" to your XF86Config4 or whatever, like so:

You may have to change:

to something else if you are not in the USA. (PAL perhaps)

Thanks for the help. I was able to see the output from TV. I used composite connection from PC to TV. However, when i unplugged the composite and restart over again, it did not work anymore. What caused the problem??????

These are my settings on XF86Config:

# XFree86 4 configuration created by redhat-config-xfree86

# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the

# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"

# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:

# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"

# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"

Don't know.
My card has SVIDEO out, my TV has RCA, I connect with an adapter.
I alsways set:

OPTION "TVOutFormat" "Auto"

To:

OPTION "TVOutFormat" "SVIDEO"

That's all I can think of

I already did that kind of testing. I will try my luck again. These are the settings i've done on my testing.

TVOutFormat "Composite" or
TVOutFormat "SVIDEO" or
TVOutFormat "AUTO"

Is there any other alternative solution???????

Thanks,
