I inherited a 1st generation Apple TV and decided to crack it open and try to turn it into a MythTV frontend. After several attempts, I eventually got LinHES 6.04.00 installed on a new internal hard drive, and I use a USB stick with atv-bootloader to boot.

I want to use a 22" DVI monitor for output. The Apple TV has two video outputs: component, and HDMI. I bought an HDMI to DVI adapter, and I used that during my install attempts while attached to an 18" DVI monitor without any trouble.

However, if I attach the Apple TV to the 22" DVI monitor, I cannot get any output at all. No output during boot (either from the USB stick or LinHES), no X output, nothing. The monitor complains there is no signal. I know the monitor works - I've tested the DVI input with both another Mac and my other LinHES machine.

Even stranger, if I boot the Apple TV while attached to the 18" monitor, I get normal output (1280x1024). Then, if I unplug the DVI cable and plug it into the 22" monitor, I get output on the 22" monitor! But it is stretched, not the native 1680x1050 (I guess because the machine still thinks it's attached to the 18" monitor).

So I know the card works, I know the monitor works, and I know the card can actually display output on the monitor... during startup, X complains about not being able to read EDID information from the monitor. I don't know why. My other Linux machine reads it just fine. I dumped the EDID on the other machine, and pointed xorg.conf to use the dumped file, but it hasn't made a difference. I've pasted my X log below.

Any thoughts?

And here is my xorg.conf. I've tried a bunch of different options in here, so this is just the current state, but nothing has made any difference.

Yeah, no kidding.

My half-solution was to generate a modeline from the EDID information I dumped on the other computer. I then turned on a bunch of options to force X to ignore auto-configuration information and use the values provided.

I was able to get 1680x1050 output that looks good on the 22". Still, it will only do this if I boot up the Apple TV while attached to the 18" monitor, then switch monitors. But, since I don't plan on rebooting it very often, and it's next to the 18" monitor, that's good enough for now.

I get the feeling that the Apple TV just isn't compatible with certain displays... the hardware can do the resolution, but I guess since its' designed to be attached to a TV... who knows. Thanks anyway.
