Setting the TV Format in xorg.conf doesn't work any longer. xorg.conf: Section "Monitor" Identifier "TV1" Option "TV Format" "PAL" EndSection Expected result: "xrandr --verbose" should report PAL as current mode, but actually "NTSC" is enabled (TV is attached when X starts!). The bug was introduced by git commit 7ae1d0dde6cef3437b67dbc21384cb179616a6c0: src/i830_tv.c: --- a/src/i830_tv.c +++ b/src/i830_tv.c @@ -1819,7 +1819,7 @@ i830_tv_set_property(xf86OutputPtr output, Atom property, xfree (dev_priv->tv_format); dev_priv->tv_format = val; - if (pI830->starting) + if (pI830->starting || output->crtc == NULL) return TRUE; /* TV format change will generate new modelines, try After I reverted these changes from 2.9.0 sources, setting TV Format works properly.

Try 'mode' instead of 'TV_FORMAT', and 'bottom margin' instead of 'BOTTOM' (as listed in your xrandr --verbose output). So I think this should be closed as invalid.
You're right, this was it.
