I have a MSI K8NGM2-FID board that has Component Out, what commands does the file need to have it come out my Component rather than my SVIDEO? |

Taking for granted that you CAN see a picture in the POST (when the computer is starting up), then here's the procedure: A)Backup the XF86Config-4 file by issuing a "mv /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.old" as root, (without quotes). B)"cp /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.nvidia-tvout.sample /etc/X11/XF86Config-4" (again, without quotes, as root) Then you need to edit your /etc/X11/XF86config-4 to reflect the correct output. C) "nano -w /etc/X11/XF86Config-4" Ctrl-W (to find a string) SVIDEO (enter) You will then see a line like this: Option "TVOutFormat" "SVIDEO" This tells the nvidia driver to use the SVIDEO output. You can force it to use the composite plug (blue hole of the component output on your motherboard) by replacing "SVIDEO" with "COMPOSITE". If you want to go higher than 800x600, and use all of the component plugs, then you need to comment out completely the line, by typing a "#" sign just in front of it. # Option "TVOutFormat" "SVIDEO" And entering the correct values for: Option "ConnectedMonitor" "TV" Option "TVStandard" "HD720p" (or HD1080i) Option "TVOverScan" "0.5" (mine is 0.7, this one will depend upon your setup. If you see only a small picture on-screen, increase it in increments of 0.1) Hope this helps! |
