I have an NV card as well, which I will be hooking up as soon as I find a long enough cable. Have you looked at nvtv? ----- daddy:~# apt-cache show nvtv Package: nvtv Priority: optional Section: admin ... Description: tool to control TV chips on NVidia cards under Linux This is a program to control the TV encoder chips on NVidia cards under Linux, in order to get tv-out with a wide range of resolutions and sizes, including "overscan" modes. It does even work with the free nv drivers. ----- Aside from that there was a recent thread with some details about the changes you'll want to make to your X config file. One response even involved your card: http://linux.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/Debian/2007-04/msg04185.html HTH, Kenward -- The church says the earth is flat, but I know that it is round, for I have seen the shadow on the moon, and I have more faith in a shadow than in the church. --Ferdinand Magellan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
