xorg-log as generated by X -configure

I purchased the BLKD945GCLF2 945GC ATOM330 motherboard for use as a mythtv box, so TV-out is the most critical function.

Unfortunately it is unable to display via S-Video no matter what settings I have tried.  1280x1024 gets the picture the closest to being readable on the TV but it is still flipping too fast to get a fix on.

I have unmasked the latest Xorg available on Gentoo so I am not filing a report on terribly outdated software, here are the packages installed:

xf86-input-keyboard-1.3.1  xf86-video-intel-2.4.2-r3
xf86-input-mouse-1.3.0     xf86-video-vesa-2.0.0
x11-drm-20080710  xorg-server-1.5.2  xorg-x11-7.2

I will follow this message with attachments of hopefully all relevant files.

Probably unimportant but there are also MTRR warnings.

dmesg says:

dmesg on this machine

Let me know if you need any more info and thanks a million.  My wife is not happy that I "killed" the mythtv with this upgrade!

Oh, you probably will want to know that it is a non-HD NTSC TV that I'm trying to get to work.  The system displays the BIOS screen and bootup messages just fine, it is only when it goes to X that it screws up the display, and the display remains in the fast-flip mode after X is shut down as well so it is left in an unusable state.

Zhenyu is working on SDVO TV out support.
