Thread: Can't get TV-out working with nvidia card + s-video


hi. i'm trying desktop output tv second display.

os: ubuntu 9.04
graphics card: nvidia corporation c51 [geforce 6150 le]

have run s-video cable computer tv. tested cable , work, , tv accept s-video in (from tivo) successfully.

root, ran nvidia-settings -> x server display configuration. regular monitor shows (with specified resolution), , tv-0, marked "(disabled)" resolution should be.

select "tv-0", "configure...", "twinview." resolution set "auto", position set "right-of". hit "apply". error: "failed set metamode(1) 'crt-0: 1280x1024 @1280x1024 +0+0, tv-0: nvidia-auto-select @1024x768 +1280+0' (mode 2304x1024, id: 50) on x screen 0 \n remove metamode?" have tried choosing both "yes" , "no," , message goes away, , tv-0 box no longer "disabled," tv still doesn't have picture coming computer.

have tried setting "configuration" "separate x screen" instead of "twinview," , "position" "clones" instead of "right of". still no picture tv.

in cases, have of course saved settings /etc/x11/xorg.conf , restarted x.

think getting through tv because when reboot see flicker, otherwise have gotten no signal @ it.

read online suggests doing should work. have suggestions me? there weird gotcha i'm missing? apparmor, or that?

thank you!

jessica
