My video card is an AIW Radeon 7500.
Does your card have an S-Video connector? I had the same problem with my
Radeon 7500 (plain, without AIW) with 4.2.* and 4.3pre* if I had booted
with the S-Video cable plugged into the card, but not in the TV, so I guess
that's an upstream/hardware related problem. The XFree bug tracking system
doesn't list this bug, though.
Actually, I tried to start Xfree with the S-Video cable unplugged from
the PC and... it works ! With the previous version of XFree, there was
no problem if the TV was plugged but now there is. So, maybe it is
possible to do something to avoid this in the code ?
Anyway, thanks a lot for your help.
