tv-out, nvidia, twinview, nvtv
Alright, I will give a bunch of information and please respond with the best way to fix me, thanks.
I have a nvidia Geforce4 MX video card, with a composite out. When I attach the composite out to my tv along with the monitor in the 15 pin, The startup information is displayed on both screens, but when I get to the X log in page the tv stops showing anything. I downloaded nvtv, but I don't know how to configure it obviously because when I hit the tv on button my monitor goes blank and nothing happens on the tv, adn when I hit f3, which is tv off, the monitor won't return.
So then I found some info on twinview and here is my XF86Config file
