&lt;div&gt;==General==&lt;br /&gt;
S3switch is a utility to switch between various output devices and formats supported by the S3 Savage chipsets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This tool allows you to switch between the CRT, LCD, and S-Video (TV) output devices.  The S-Video output device can be set to output as NTSC, NTSCJ or PAL TV signal format.  S3switch can also output the current status and available output devices.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{NOTE|If you have Option &amp;quot;UseBIOS&amp;quot; &amp;quot;off&amp;quot; in your X Server configuration file, s3switch will only work when the X Server is not running.}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Features==&lt;br /&gt;
Used to control output features of S3 Savage chipsets&lt;br /&gt;
* Switches between output devices (CRT,LCD,TV)&lt;br /&gt;
* Switches between output formats (NTSC,NTSCJ,PAL)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Project Homepage / Availability ==&lt;br /&gt;
* Homepage: http://www.probo.com/timr/savage40.html&lt;br /&gt;
* Debian package available, &amp;quot;s3switch&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
* Currently only supports Linux&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Usage==&lt;br /&gt;
* List currently attached devices, active devices, and current format&lt;br /&gt;
:{{cmduser|sudo s3switch}}&lt;br /&gt;
* Make CRT, LCD, and S-Video (TV) output active&lt;br /&gt;
:{{cmduser|sudo s3switch crd lcd tv}}&lt;br /&gt;
* Set S-Video (TV) output format to NTSC&lt;br /&gt;
:{{cmduser|sudo s3switch ntsc}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Bugs/Caveats==&lt;br /&gt;
* T23 users may need to apply [http://ck.org.ua/dev/s3switch.patch this patch] to avoid a Segmentation Fault&lt;br /&gt;
