Hi -

I need to get S-Video output to multiple ATI 9200 adapter cards on SuSE Linux. 
The built-in SuSE radeon drivers can't/won't output to S-Video; the (binary
only) drivers provided by ATI won't handle more than one card.

So I thought I'd try the tv_output patch on http://gatos.sourceforge.net.

For which I needed to download and build Xorg.

I did the following:

  0. I did *not* uninstall my existing SuSE X windows: neither "YaST2" 
     or "rpm -e" would let me uninstall.

  1. Downloaded and unpacked xorg-x11-6.8.99.15.tar.bz2:
     <= SUCCESSFUL

  2. Downloaded and installed the tv_output patch:
     gunzip -c /distrib/gatos/xorg_CVS-20050420-tv_output.patch.gz | \
      patch -p1 -d xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/drivers/ati
       <= PATCH INSTALLED SUCCESSFULLY: NO ERRORS/NO WARNINGS

  3. Built the Xorg binaries:
     (as normal user) mkdir xc-build; cd xc-build; lndir ../xc
     make World > make.err
     <= APPEARED TO BE SUCCESSFUL

  4. Installed the Xorg binaries:
     (as root) make install
     <= THIS, TOO, APPEARED OK

  5. Tried to run "configure"
     (as root) cd /usr/X11R6/bin
     ./Xorg -configure =>

  6. Tried to test
     ./X -config /root/xorg.conf.new
     <= THIS KILLED THE HOST (ENTIRE PC LOCKED UP)

Help?

Thank you in advance .. Paul Santa Maria
