Hi Folks,
I seem to be having a problem getting X up on the screen of the my TV. Why, you might ask. A couple months ago, I picked up a Pioneer receiver and hooked my epia based mythtv system through it. This worked nice and well at the time because the frontend was on.

However, a week later, there were some thunderstorms that knocked out power. I booted up the system and it posted and progressed through the text portion till it reached the point where x should load. At that point, the screen went blank. I could switch to a text console with ctrl+alt+f1-6, but I couldn't get x to show up. I unplugged the s-video cable going into the reciever and put it right into the TV and it worked fine on reboot. I swapped the cables back and the system's been up since. I assumed that it was how the display was being detected. I've been looking for a fix or a way to force the display for the better part of a month with no success.

Anyone have a thoughts about this (or maybe a google search term for someone that's still something of a linux neophyte)?

Many Thanks,
Tim

I'm guessing that no one has run into this before (judging by the replies)? Is there anyone that has an idea of where to look for an answer?
