A couple minor points, that I'm sure you've tried already.
If the netbook and the TV are already turned on, and connected, you should go into the Monitors app in Ubuntu (under Preferences, I think), and tell it to redetect monitors. If everything is good, then you should see the TV listed (or at least something in addition to the usual monitor).
If that doesn't work, try rebooting the netbook. Sometimes monitor detection only works right on boot up (in my experience).
I have had the EEE pc running on a TV directly. But the difference was that the TV had a VGA input so I was able to just use a standard VGA monitor cable.

Hi I have been trying to hook up my old EEE 1000 to my TV but have not been having any luck. I bought a cable that runs from the VGA to the "S" port on my flat screen but I can get neither video or audio. I am running Ubuntu 10.10. My other option that I was thinking of to access streaming video from things like CBC or CNN or whatever was one of these. http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product/western-digital-western-digital-tv-live-hub-media-center-1tb-wdbabz0010bbk-nesn-wdbabz0010bbk-nesn/10155309.aspx?path=515de3b13f64a5ad66858a84598b4712en02 Any suggestions? _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list clug-talk@clug.ca http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
