Post subject:  Huh? Prev. good TV-OUT Config. won't work with R5A22

Hi friends:

Well, I'm settling into the goodness that is R5A22, tuning things as I go.

My biggest problem is that I can't seem to get TV-OUT to work.

I've taken the exact config. lines from the XF86Config-4 file which worked
fine in R5A12, and pasted them into the file, but they won't seem to work
with R5A22. Below is the relevant section.

Code:
#       TV-OUT Setup
   Option "TwinView" "1"
   Option "TwinViewOrientation" "Clone"
   Option "ConnectedMonitor" "CRT, TV"
   Option "SecondMonitorHorizSync" "30-50"
   Option "SecondMonitorVertRefresh" "60"
   Option "MetaModes" "800x600, 800x600; 800x600, 640x480; 640x480, 640x480"
   Option "MetaModes" "640x480, null; null, 640x480"         
   Option "TVStandard" "NTSC-M"
    Option "TVOutFormat" "COMPOSITE"
EndSection


Without these lines, I get a perfect picture on my PC monitor. With these
lines, get a "No screens found" error from X, and the log complains that
my line 198 of my XF86Config-4 file is invalid. It claims the word "Option"
is not a valid parameter. Huh? The lines worked just fine in R5A12.


Can anyone lend any ideas?


Thanks in advance.

Posting the exact error messages from your /var/log/XFree86.0.log would probably be helpful. You also don't provide enough context to let us verify that you've got those in the right section of your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4...
