S-Video on a SiS chipset
Hello,
I'm having problems of getting my TV output work on my laptop, I would like to use it as some sort of a DVD player to watch movies on the big screen.
So I've bought the S-Video to S-Video cable and plugged it in, ran sisctrl the SiS Control Utility and started configuring the xorg. I've tried both, the MergedFB mode and the Dual Head, none work, I just get a black screen on the TV.
This is the whole display/monitor/device section of the xorg.conf:

I've googled A LOT and didn't find anything helpful. Maybe some of you know what to do. |
