Post subject:  R5A12 on Epia M10000

Hi all,

I'm trying to install R5A12 on my new Epia M10000, and it seems everything works except TV output, which is awful, just a green and blue colors. I do not have any PVR card yet, so I'm using the s-video epia output and not sure whether I have configured "XF86Config-4" file in the right way.

Basically I followed the next steps:

- Autoinstall CD option.... OK
- dpkg -i /usr/srcv/mythtv/epia/*.deb .... OK
- update-modules (I was not sure whether I have to do it or not)
- And finally change "XF86Config-4" file as follows:

Section "Module"
Load "ddc" # ddc probing of monitor
Load "GLcore"
Load "dbe"
Load "v4l"
Load "drm"
Load "dri"
Load "extmod"
Load "glx"
Load "bitmap" # bitmap-fonts
Load "speedo"
Load "type1"
Load "freetype"
Load "record"
EndSection

Change the "Device" section with card0 to look like this:

Section "Device"
Identifier "card0"
Driver "via"
Option "DPMS"
Option "TVType" "PAL"
Option "TVVScan" "over"
Option "TVOutput" "S-Video"
Option "ActiveDevice" "TV"
EndSection

Did I miss something? It's a known problem with via motherboards ?
Or, even with the R5A12 Do I have to follow almost the whole Howto described in the wiki link below?

Thanks in advance

Perhaps a search of the forum. This has been answered.

answering to myself:

1. edit "XF86Config-4" file
2. set Option "DPMS" to "false"

And it works
