I've an older laptop which I would like to hook up to my television, however it has a Radeon IGP 340M (I think, it can be a 330M or 350M as well). When I enable TV out with the radeon driver using

xrandr --addmode S-video 800x600
xrandr --output S-video --mode 800x600

it does display something, but it like it's horrible out of sync or something like that. Is there any way to get TV out working ( I think these cards are the same as a Radeon 7000 as far as I could find out)


I use the radeon drivers included with OpenSuse 11.1, from Xorg 1.5.2

TV out on older IGP chips should work if you are using NTSC. No one has added support for PAL yet. If you are using NTSC, make sure you have the proper tv standard set (either as an xorg.conf option or via xrandr).

I'll try that later this day, as my TV is multi system (luckily).

Also, you'll need 6.10.0 or newer since the patch was added after 6.9.0 was released.

Thanks, updating the drivers and setting tv out to NTSC worked like a charm!
