The Tv is on, and set to "input", the screen says "Unusable Source"
which is from the TV.  But when I start X on the computer it flickers a
couple times and then nothing.  I know the inputs on the TV are good, I
played PS2 on them this afternoon :)  I'm gonna drag my roommates TV out
here and see if it works :)
