While on the subject of FXTV, do you (or anyone else) have the problem that the X screen gets corrupted _before_ the TV window is placed on the screen? The corruption looks like vido data that is being placed directly onto the screen (before twm has a chance to place the final window), except that only every second line is seen. Once I have placed it on the screen, it works just fine, barring the _very_ occaisional hang. (Which could be audio- related). I start fxtv like this: #!/bin/sh fxtv -inputFormat pal -antennaChannelList 21-68 -antennaFreqSet weurope -defaultInput tuner -contrast 60 -brightness 45 ...and I run X in 16 bit mode. It is reported like this in xdm-errors: XFree86 Version 3.3 / X Window System (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6300) Release Date: Jun 2 1997 If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting problems.
