Package: xserver-xorg-video-ati
Version: 1:6.5.8.0-1
Severity: normal

I have a Thinkpad R40 2681-5UU with a 
ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY

I can't get output to the TV working properly. The computer does seem to have
noticed the TV:

# atitvout detect
CRT is attached.
TV is attached via S-Video.

I've tried various things in xorg.conf, similar to:

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Video Card for Internal"
        Driver          "radeon"
        BusID           "PCI:1:0:0"
        Option "BIOSHotkeys" "true"
        Option "composite_sync" "off"
        Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS, STV"
        Option "TVOutput"      "NTSC"
        Screen 0
EndSection

An interesting bit of Xorg.0.log is,

(II) RADEON(0): Detected Radeon Mobility M6, disabling multimedia i2c
(II) Loading sub module "theatre_detect"
(II) LoadModule: "theatre_detect"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/multimedia/theatre_detect_drv.so
(II) Module theatre_detect: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
        compiled for 7.0.0, module version = 1.0.0
        ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 0.8
(II) RADEON(0): no multimedia table present, disabling Rage Theatre.
(WW) RADEON(0): Option "composite_sync" is not used
(WW) RADEON(0): Option "TVOutput" is not used
(**) RADEON(0): RADEONScreenInit finished

(I've tried at 800x600 resolution in case the theater_out module was looking
for that, given the hints under "Making it work" at
http://gatos.sourceforge.net/theater_out.php )

I am using xserver-xorg 1:7.0.22 reporting itself as
X Window System Version 7.0.0

http://gatos.sourceforge.net/supported_cards.php suggests that
my card should work, but I don't know how much gatos code has made
it into X.Org.

Before the upgrade, with XFree86 Version 4.4.0 I could use atitvout to display
to the TV, but if I try that with current X.Org (atitvout isn't reported to
work with recent X.Org anyway) then when a mouse pointer moves out of the
window it was in a horrifying "false inverted colour" sort of effect happens
and sticks.

I'd prefer not to resort to non-free stuff like fglrx to get the TV out
working again, so I thought I'd check to see if I shouldn't have to. (Perhaps
if your package isn't even meant to offer TV out then this becomes a wishlist
item.)

Apologies if I did anything clueless - this is my first experience of X.Org
and the package installation just left me a completely empty xorg.conf !
