So last night I shut down my computer, unplugged the LCD monitor, and
rebooted with only the TV attached. Success -- it came up with the
display showing on the TV! (This also means that the problem does not
have to do with different ohm loads.)
However, I do need to have the LCD work as well, because this computer
is my desktop, not a dedicated MythTV box.
I rebooted with the LCD plugged back in and was back to square one. So
at this point I seem to only be able to have one work at a time.
I also checked BIOS settings. There is a display setting which is
currently set to "PCI." Other options are "PCI-E" and "Onboard." Not
sure if I should try one of those? I don't actually know what the
different options mean.
I have recently upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 (my previous email had said
9.04). Graphics card is an nVidia Corporation C51 [GeForce 6150 LE].
Is it time to try xorg.conf hacking? I hope not.
