This is what I do. 1. xrandr -q The relevant lines in the output are: S-video disconnected 800x600+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm 800x600 72.2* 2. xrandr --addmode S-video 800x600 3. xrandr --output S-video --mode 800x600 --crtc 1 4. xvattr -a XV_CRTC -v 1 xvattr is to needed to send the image to the TV. It may be obtained from the Debian Multimedia archive. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
