Hi Mark,

Thanks whats properly beginning to work now - if I boot up with just the TV 
card plugged in, it shows the POST, bootup and console on the TV.  X then 
works fine on the TV.

But, if the monitor is plugged in, it refuses to do anything; saying that the 
hsync is out of range for all modes..?  

I think even though I say -screen "tvout", the card still tries to do it on 
the monitor.  not what its supposed to do..

this is now mightily confusing, have you seen anything like that before?

Cheers

Shane
