    The previous method doesn't work very good for X users, since either they +have to shutdown it, or it becomes uselessly messy. This section is for them.

    + +

    +

  • compile the matroxfb stuff to modules
    • +
  • load modules with the ./modules script
    • +
  • turn on display cloning with ./cloning
    • +
  • execute ./TV-640x512 or whichever resolution you +wish to use
    • +

    + +

    Now you should have a clean picture on the TV, and maybe a somewhat strange +picture on the console. But console doesn't matter, start X. Your TV +goes black or have strange stripes, but monitor/X is fine !
    +So, anytime you want to start watching something on TV, just start +MPlayer in X (-vo mga of course, and calculate +-x and -y values by hand), change to tty1 (with +ctrl-alt-f1), and turn off the monitor. +
