Perhaps it's just outputting something your TV *thinks* is 1080i? Can you please post the X logs somewhere so we can see? > 2- How and where is the ability to write out an xorg.conf with the > current settings? Well, you can run X -configure , but it doesn't really give you exactly that. It just gives you a very basic xorg.conf with the driver specified. I can't think of a particular reason you'd need an xorg.conf which exactly reflected the current auto-detected configuration (and it'd be rather long as it'd have to codify all the RandR stuff). If you just add whatever configuration *change* you need to the basic xorg.conf you can get by doing X -configure, it should work as you'd expect.

That's a bug, please report it on Bugzilla. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
