Re: [GATOS]Strange TV-out,Radeon Mobile 7500, Xorg 6.9.0

[Rune P. <ru...@me...>]

Hi,

The distortions I can't explain (analog was never my strong side).

The only thing I don't like from the log is:
(II) RADEON(0): Primary:
  Monitor   -- CRT
  Connector -- VGA
  DAC Type  -- Primary
  TMDS Type -- NONE
  DDC Type  -- VGA_DDC
(II) RADEON(0): Secondary:
  Monitor   -- NONE
  Connector -- Proprietary
  DAC Type  -- TVDAC/ExtDAC
  TMDS Type -- NONE
  DDC Type  -- NONE

Most (all?) successes with TV-out have CRT + TVDAC/ExtDAC on the primary.

About the modeline; TV-out doesn't work in 640x480 (yet). could you send 
me the log when not using the Modeline.
