Hi Ej,

1. Download the manual from the ATI site (ok, the 9200 is available -
probably close enough).

2. Understand your TVs inputs and your ATI card outputs and which cord
you need to properly connect the two.  This must be right.

3. Check to see that your driver (Linux drivers available on the ATI
site) is compatable with the video output feature you desire using
your particular X version.  I understand there are some issures with
the most current drivers (ATI site).

4. From your Video Card Control Panel (should have installed this when
installing the driver) see that the "enable video out" is enabled.

Have fun!
