Hi Jose,

Thanks for testing, I'm glad it fixed your panel sizing issues.

Two things -- "TV out" is a bit of a misnomer. It means the SVideo/analog style TVout connectors, which as I'm led to believe, the XPS 1330 doesn't have.

The HDMI protocol is very similar to DVI, and as such would be connected to the TMDS-1 transmitter, like any other DVI device would be. I'm not sure if it is actually expected to work in the intel driver at the moment, but you should be able to find out if you mess with the "TMDS-1" port with xrandr.

Sorry I can't be much more help, I don't have a laptop with a HDMI port to mess around with.

Regards,
