Re: [XFree86] TV-out on radeon 9000

Thanks for the answer. I googled my little head off looking for an 
answer, including the 4.3 release notes for the radeon driver and 
searches across this list. It would have been nice if somewhere it said 
that tv-out wasn't supported by the radeon driver :(

I switched to the vesa driver and now it works but it really fuzzy 
(unfocused) -- even large fonts are unreadable. What's the modeline for 
the highest resolution setting that an plain old NTSC-M TV will support?
