FWIW, and I'm not certain I'm in the right place, I have a Toshiba Satellite A55 with i855GM graphics. At one time the "TV out" (s-video) worked under Ubuntu... up through 10.04 Lucid (and I think 10.10 Maverick as well) but with 11.x (Natty and Oneric) it quit working. I was hoping it might return with 12.4 Precise, but it isn't :(

I'm not sure what I can contribute to the effort other than thorough testing, but if someone can make it work again I'm all for it. While it is a bit long in the tooth, the Toshiba makes for a nice low-end media center. I suppose I could downgrade back to 10.x, but I'd rather see it working again in current versions.

Perhaps a related question is why, if it used to wor, did it cease to work? I hate it when upgrades break something that I use.
