I'm running FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE on a Compaq Armade E500 notebook, which is using a 'ATI RAGE P/M Mobility AGP 2x' graphics accelerator. Yesterday i updated from XFree-4.2.0 to XFree-4.3.0, and since then, the TV-OUT refuses to work anymore under X. I installed 4.3.0 from the ports via portupgrade and installed the corresponding ATI package as mentioned on http://gatos.sourceforge.net/ati.2.php Before, i was able to switch between display and TV-OUT with a special function key, in case there is a TV connected on the chinch connector. This worked in both text console and X desktop. After the XFree update, it only works in text console mode, and the function key doesn't switch to the TV-OUT anymore when displaying the X session. So i'm quite sure that there's no hardware but an X server problem ... Any hints very appreciated... With kind regards, Frank Altpeter -- Most projects require three hands.
