Package: s3switch
Version: 0.0.20030423-2
Severity: normal
On a Packard-Bell Easynote E3 with a Prosavage8 chip,
I cannot switch to PAL mode.
NTSC(-j) TV out works well, but I get B/W NTSC display :
I need PAL mode
When I run s3switch tv pal, I get the following:
# ./s3switch tv pal
vm86() failed
return = 0x1

Could not set device (vm86 failure)
Devices attached: CRT LCD TV
Devices active: CRT LCD TV
Current TV format is NTSC
I've tried several things:
- set PAL mode in the Bios
- enabling and disabling UseBios in XF86Config
- enabling TVout and PAL Options in XF86Config
- trying to s3switch without X running
- I also tried adding the following in s3switch's IOaccess function :
ioperm( 0x71, 1, enable );
ioperm( 0xed, 1, enable );
ioperm( 0xeb, 1, enable );
In that case I get no error, but I don't get PAL mode.
It is still stucked in NTSC
