Question How do I change my video settings??

Hello, I am a newbie to debian, and I am trying to change my video cards settings, but I have no idea where to do it. I am trying to change the ouput of the video card to my s-video output and of course be able to switch it back.
I am wondering if I need to set up some application to do this, because I haven't found anything in my current system that will let me do that with gnome.
I am using debian etch and my video card is a
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400]

Any help will be greatly appreciated.....

this page can help setting up twin view, but as for switching between two output modes i really dont know. You could enable twinview and just unplug the device you dont want to use.
