Compaq 1700T - Video OUT and ACPI

[Fernando Caprio Jr <maddog@osbiriba.com.br>]

Hello,

	I have a PIII 1ghz Compaq 1700T. There are two things I never found out how to solve that keeps me from deleting windows. Wondering if someone over here could give me some ideas.

First thing: I never got S-VHS video out working on linux, it got a Radeon M6 LY video card. I tried lots of diferent things, but dident find a way to get it working. 

Second thing: The ACPI support that comes with lastest kernels 2.4.20 can detect the charger connected, but not the battery status. That's odd, but I couldent find a way to get ACPI working. I tried to get Intel ACPI stuff but kernel wouldent compile after the patch.

Any ideas ?

Thanks
