Hi, I'm trying to a boot a Samsung NC20 netbook (VIA Nano CPU, VX800 chipset) via pxelinux, using the files from the netboot.tar.gz Debian installer. The last file tftp loads is vesamenu.c32, after that the notebook just reboots. I can see no error message, and no menuscreen. I also haven't used pxelinux before, so I even don't know what I am supposed to see :-) Any idea what is

I couldn't find this information in the mailing list archive, so I thought I mention if it someone else runs into the same problem. While some mails in the archive point out that it is not possible to just take a CD iso image and boot it over PXE, it *is* possible to boot over PXE and the download the rest of the image into RAM over ethernet.

You can try nvtv (http://sourceforge.net/projects/nv-tv-out/). It bypasses X and modesetting and programs the Brooktree and CRTC directly. I've no

Hi, I read on http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/TestersWanted that you're looking for information for the integrated tvout functionality. I'm the author of nvtv, and I know some bits and pieces about that subject, so maybe we can pool efforts. The TV encoder used in the NVidia GPUs may be a Zoran CVE IP core, http://www.zoran.com/products/literature/index.html For the GF4 MX,

Hello, I'll start by applauding your efforts to make an open source driver for nv hardware. I imagine it is a very difficult task trying to reverse engineer hardware and produce something useful and featureful. I wish to make a change to the nouveau source. You might say I am considering becoming a nouveau developer. I am one of those crazy nutters who connects my nvidia card directly to
