Fedora Users — Re: tv-out for ATI mach64 on Fedora Core 2

As far as I know, the only way to get TV out on an ATI card is with either the "vesa" driver or ATI's binary driver. To use the vesa driver, change the Driver "ati" line to Driver "vesa". It is slow.... but works. Don't try this with something like MythTV

As for the commercial drivers, I wasn't able to get them to work with FC1, but the directions are here: http://www.fedorafaq.org/#radeon

these things. but i will send you my xorg.conf.

Do you actually have X working well with this card?
I can't get  X working at 16bpp with the ATI
Mobility video system
on my Sony Picturebook under FC-2.
(It worked OK under FC-1.)

I'd be very grateful if you could send me your
xorg.conf .
