  Do you have an NTSC modeline?

  I think I'm stuck waiting for the GATOS web site to
come back. My output card has the Impactv chip, so I
might be able to get that to handle X directly. If I can
handle X directly, then I can kiss off all these
framebuffer problems.

  Does anybody here have experience with the impactv
chip for TV out on an ATI card? Or
even just the latest GATOS software since the
site has been down weeks...

  (on the unrelated upside, I finally got an HDTV
digital cable box!)
