I patched my kernel (2.6.31) with "next-20090918". Now I get the mode
output. But if I want to set "PAL" with "xrandr --output TV1 --set mode
PAL" nothing happens. I could also execute something like "xrandr
--output TV1 --set mode asdf". After running "xrandr --prop" I see
"mode: asdf".  I'm a little bit confused. Any hints to get this working?
