How can I change the video out to s-video from Angstrom Linux? I am
using xM with the pre-built binaries in the micro SD (out of box
testing).
I came across this link: http://code.google.com/p/beagleboard/wiki/LinuxHints
But it seems that the path is different now.
root@beagleboard:/usr/bin# ./testsvideo &
root@beagleboard:/usr/bin# Current resolution is 1024 x 768
Switching to TV output (720 x 482)...
mode "720x482-126"

manager 'tv'

omap_disp_cont
rol/graphics
-sh: can't create /sys/class/display_control/omap_disp_control/
graphics: nonexistent directory
It seems that the path maybe here for the version shipped in the board
(I did some trial and error but didnt help)
root@beagleboard:/# cd /sys/devices/platform/omapdss/
root@beagleboard:/sys/devices/platform/omapdss# ls
display0 modalias
display1 overlay0
driver overlay1
manager0 overlay2
manager1 power
microamps_requested_vdda_dac subsystem
microamps_requested_vdds_dsi uevent
I tried setting from u-boot (http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu#S-
Video) but I think I was messing it up, as I ended up in Kernel Panic.
How can I change the video out to S_video and then test for some video
coming on the monitor?
Thanks.
