Thanks for all of the kind responses. :^) I did indeed figure out the problem by this method just before I received your message. Apparently, I had a connector that was seated well enough to show video (at least at the linux console) but not well enough to do the EDID communication needed by the X server to enable the output. Now my only remaining head-scratcher is why, after starting the X server, I have to CTRL-ALT-F1 and then ALT-F7 back in order to get my TMDS-1 output fully accelerated for window dragging, etc. -- Thomas E.
