Your X-Server probably comes up in a high resolution & refresh rate. That'd be too much for your conventional TV. There are different ways of doing this, depending on what you want to achieve. I for one switch to the console (CTRL-ALT-F1) and do the tv-out stuff then (eg watch movies with mplayer via the fbdev device). -- HaJo Schatz <hajo@xxxxxxxx> http://www.HaJo.Net PGP-Key: http://www.hajo.net/hajonet/keys/pgpkey_hajo.txt
