I was able to successfully display on my tv using 'atitvout -f t'. However,
as soon as I touch the mouse or keyboard, the video 'reverses', giving an
effect somewhat similar to a photo negative. I'm running Xfree 4.3 with
XFree-drm radeon drivers. I was able to work around this using a plain
vanilla XFree86.config using vesa drivers, but now DVD and video playing
hammers the processor. Has anyone else experienced this?
