Samsung HDTV (EE) Screen found, but none have a usable configuration.

Hi,
I have a new HDTV connected on the DVI port. At boot no signal is sent to the screen and i can see a shell just when daemons are loaded.
But here is the main problem: X server (KDE) can't start

(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.
[ 885.388]
Fatal server error:
[ 885.388] no screens found

I tried to execute "Xorg -configure" but this new configuration file doesn't solve the problem.
Since yesterday i had a vga-connected monitor, now the screen (Samsung t24b301ew) is connected through a dvi2hdmi wire

Thank's

Re: Samsung HDTV (EE) Screen found, but none have a usable configuration.

have you installed xorg-server and the requisite video drivers for your machine?

lspci | grep VGA
