Problems with PVR350, xorc.conf or the PAL TV

Hi there.

I've spent a few days to find a solution of a problem with my PVR350. I've installed the ivtiv driver, configured xorg and I got some kond of an output on my tv. But it ain't right.

The tv is showing a picture of 2 separate xdm-logins on the upper half of the screen and they are filling the screen all the way from left to right. The lower half of the screen is black. Besides, the colors on the xdm-logins are somewhat messed up. Greenish, actually.

I use the following configurations:

/etc/modules.d/ivtv:

Code: Select all

alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
options ivtv ivtv_std=2 tda9887=0 cardtype=2 tuner=1
options tuner
options msp3400 once=1
options saa7127
add below ivtv msp3400 saa7115 saa7127 tuner
add above ivtv lirc_dev lirc_i2c ivtv-fb
post-install ivtv /usr/bin/ivtvctl -d /dev/video0  -u 0xff
post-install ivtv /usr/bin/ivtvctl -d /dev/video16 -u 0xff
post-install ivtv /usr/bin/ivtvctl -d /dev/video24 -u 0xff
post-install ivtv /usr/bin/ivtvctl -d /dev/video32 -u 0xff
post-install ivtv /usr/bin/ivtvctl -d /dev/video16 -p 4 -f width=720,height=576
/etc/X11/xorg.conf

Code: Select all

Section "Module"
    SubSection  "extmod"
    Option    "omit xfree86-dga"   # don't initialise the DGA extension
    EndSubSection
    Load  "v4l"
    Load  "glx"
    Load  "record"
    Load  "extmod"

        Option      "fbdev" "/dev/fb0"
        Option      "ivtv" "/dev/fb0"
        BusID "01:0x09:0"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Card0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth    16
        Subsection "Display"
            Modes "300x225"
        EndSubsection
EndSection
What am I missing? Any help is VERY welcome.
Kind regards.
