PAL mode.
NOTES
PLEASE NOTE: When using the ati driver of XFree 4.1 you should rerun
this utility always after having changed the screen resolution with
C-A-+ or C-A--. Otherwise the displays may go nuts.
PLEASE NOTE: Not all ATI adapters support all of these commands. Please
try them all before complaining.
PLEASE NOTE: Most cards do not allow to activate non attached displays.
All calls to atitvout will fail if you try to enable displays which do
not show up in ’atitvout detect’.
PLEASE NOTE: Not all adapters seem to support simultaneously using TV
and LCD from within Linux. Thus ’lt’ may fail, while ’l’ and ’t’
succeed. In this case ’auto’ will fail too. In fact ’auto’ works only
on very few adapters.
