Hi,

I'm using Fedora 13s radeon driver together with a Radeon HD 4350 that has a
TV-out connector which is connected to a PAL TV set. Within my xorg.conf I
have set the following additional options but I do not get a real PAL signal
with PAL resolution out of the card:

Option "VGAAccess" "FALSE"
Option "TVDACLoadDetect" "TRUE"
Option "ForceTVOut" "TRUE"
Option "TVStandard" "pal"
Option "DefaultTVDACAdj" "TRUE"
Option "ATOMTVOut" "TRUE"

Unfortunately the Xorg.log tells me that most these options are not used:

[ 1654.824] (WW) RADEON(0): Color tiling is not yet supported on R600/R700
[ 1654.925] (WW) RADEON(0): Option "VGAAccess" is not used
[ 1654.925] (WW) RADEON(0): Option "TVDACLoadDetect" is not used
[ 1654.925] (WW) RADEON(0): Option "ForceTVOut" is not used
[ 1654.925] (WW) RADEON(0): Option "DefaultTVDACAdj" is not used
[ 1654.925] (WW) RADEON(0): Option "ATOMTVOut" is not used

And what I get out of the TV connector does not seem to be a real PAL
signal:

- I can't use the correct resolution of 720x576, the X-server starts with
1024x768 when I set this resolution in section "Screen"
- I don't get a real overscan picture, when I use a resolution of 800x600
(which is not really PAL) most parts of this screen are visible, overscan
does not work
- I have a small but ugly black strip on bottom of my screen (with a height
of about 10..20 pixels), where no picture is displayed

Hacking the display with xvidtune also does not work, it simply does not
react to any of my changes.

So how can I really get TV out working on this card?
