Question s3trio 64v+ w/ tv-out


I have a s3trio 64v+ with a tv-out.
All i can get is a 800x600 16bit screen and i dont know how to get my tv-out workin...
i can handle the 800x600 on the comp screen if i can get the tv-out workin.
I did search on google and on linuxQ with not much result(That helps)
Right now the card is only loaded as a vga compatible on somehow load on 1 meg memory (It should get 64)
I know the card is basicaly unsupported but if i can get the tv-out workin the rest i dont mind
Anyone has an idea where i can start?
Thank u all

What Linux distro is this?

What video driver are you using, the default or something else that you loaded?

What does the output in a console terminal as root say for following commands?

Code:
uname -a

lspci

cat /proc/interrupts

lsmod
What's the computer monitor make and model?

What's the tv make and model?
