What I do is have a separate ServerLayou=20 section for the SVIDEO out. I think use a script that I run when I=20 want to run the SVIDEO out. It can be run while X is running on the=20 LCD panel. It will start a new display and session on the TV. http://am-productions.biz/docs/xorg.conf http://am-productions.biz/docs/tvout > Linux has the exact same=20 > issue, the only solution was to make sure the s-video connection > was unplugged during Xorg startup and plug it in afterwards.
