Hi,
I don't know if this is the most appropriate place to ask this question,
since i believe is not related with fedora only, but with kernel 2.6.1
and/or nvidia latest drivers, but i desperate need some help.
since i've installed kernel 2.6.1 (i didn't try with 2.6.0 or the -testx
series) whenever i try to enable tv-out (in clone mode usually), and
startx the monitor is blank, and instead the images appear on TV only.
Why is this happening. what can i do about it (i need my monitor so i
can start the programs, mplayer to be exact, with the right options, and
not to be forced to go to the TV, witch is 5 meters away, to see what
i've typed). Does anybody knows about this problem??? What can i do
about it (except booting with 2.4 kernel)?
Here is the relevant part from my XF86config file:
