    image. If you really want to use X, use the <CODE>-vo x11 -fs -zoom</CODE>
    options, but it will be <B>SLOW</B>, and has <B>Macrovision</B> copyprotection

  <LI><B>Framebuffer</B>: using the <B>matroxfb modules</B> in the 2.4 kernels.
    2.2 kernels don't have the TVout feature in them, thus unusable for this.
    You have to enable ALL matroxfb-specific feature during compilation, and
    compile them into <B>modules</B>!

	Enter <CODE>TVout/matroxset</CODE> and type <CODE>make</CODE>. Install
        <CODE>matroxset</CODE> into somewhere in your PATH.</LI>

        will enter into framebuffer mode (no way back!).</LI>
      <LI>Next, run the <CODE>./matroxtv</CODE> script. This will present you
        to a very simple menu. Press <B>2</B> and <B>ENTER</B>. Now you should
	have the same picture on your monitor, and TV. The <B>3.</B> option
        will turn on independent display, but then you <B>can't use X</B>! If
	the TV picture has some weird stripes on it, the script wasn't able to
	set the resolution correctly (to 640x512 by default). Use other menu
	items randomly and it'll be OK :)</LI>
