Grant, I have some Pundit-R machines that may have a similar ATI chip. Mine is a 9100 IGP. What is in yours?
On my Pundits I'm running xorg 7.0 and 8.27.10. I have S-Video working on one but not the other. I'm working on that as I write. If you think anything I have might be of use feel free to write me off-line. Like you I'm finding the ATI support in the Gentoo Wiki somewhat out of date for 7.0 and the newer drivers. Much of what used to work on these machines no longer works at all. Unfortunately I'm not qualified to get it working quickly so I'm in pain over here.

I have a Dell Inspiron 7500 laptop with an ATI Mobility video card. It has an S-video TV-out port that I can't get working. I've read all kinds of stuff about it online, but I'm unsure which way to go. I'm using the "ati" driver right now but I've read that the ati-gatos driver might be better. I haven't even turned this laptop on in quite a while so it's running a lot of old stuff. Should I update x11-xorg to 7.0 and use a particular VIDEO_CARD flag and see if that works? How should my xorg.conf look? I've also read that atitvout should help but it doesn't seem to be in portage and its homepage says it is no longer maintained. - Grant -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
