As far as I know, the only way to get NVIDIA cards to work with
TV-out is to use NVIDIA's binary drivers. They stopped supporting
GeForce 256 recently, so you'd have to get older versions of the
binary drivers.

Any chance NVidia would release the source code that was removed ?

Hello mailing list! I have an old nVidia GeForce 256 with an Svideo port and
an NTSC TV that I'd like to pair. I've heard that an improperly configured X
server can make a TV smoke/catch on fire/explode/die. I don't know if there
is any truth in this, but I'd rather as the experts than end up in the
hospitol.
The TV is a Toshiba 27" TV (NTSC) Model Number 27A32.
The lspci line for my GeForce 256 is "0000:01:05.0 VGA compatible
controller: nVidia Corporation NV10 [GeForce 256 SDR] (rev 10)"
my /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file can be found at
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=2334412, as I think
it would be impolite to put something that long into a mailing list.
Thanks to anyone who can help this n00b.
