I'd proved the follow: - a knopix and with driver vesa image is correct. - when I prove with my fedora (and RH 9) with vesa drivers, image is fuzzy too. - if I prove with ati drivers (from gatos) the X server don't start. I adjust monitor frecuency, test with autoconfiguration, without second busID... all fails. I think that exists anything in XFree86 programation on Red Hat (fedora) that with my hardware configuration fails. I'd tested a screenshot of my fuzzy image in my (little) win98 in the same computer and image is perfect with that hardware.
The problem is resolved. how? I don't know. I change hardware (box and HD) and when I'd reinstalled fedora in new HD, image is correct. I suppose that I'd moved videocard to correct position. Although in the Windows 98 that was in another partition always works fine. I'd tried reproduce the problem: copying old configuration, moving ati videocard... and always works fine. Sorry by your lost time with me.
Closing as "NOTABUG" since you've indicated the problem no longer occurs for you. If the issue returns, feel free to reopen the report and add any additional details and status. Thanks.
I found the error and I can reproduce it in my computer or another computer with ATI videocard. The problem is output of S-VIDEO (image for tv). If I retire the cable that convert the exit of video, the image is seen well. If I connect the cable the image it returns fuzzy. Single it happens with Redhat or Fedora. With Knopix and Debian not happens this. I probe it with fedora core 1 with ATI videocard 9000 pro and ATI 9200.
