I've noticed that some tv-outs will not work until the computer boots 
with the svideo cable plugged in ( you should see your bios post and 
linux start to load thru your tv) and then it can be enabled to use via 
X...

again this is a few cards that i've run across not many.. worth a shot tho

>>#    Option    "XkbDisable"
>># To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
>># lines below (which are the defaults).  For example, for a non-U.S.
>># keyboard, you will probably want to use:
>>#    Option    "XkbModel"    "pc102"
>># If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
>>#    Option    "XkbModel"    "microsoft"
>>#
>># Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
>># For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
>>#    Option    "XkbLayout"    "de"
>># or:
>>#    Option    "XkbLayout"    "de"
>>#    Option    "XkbVariant"    "nodeadkeys"
>>#
>># If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
>># control keys, use:
>>#    Option    "XkbOptions"    "ctrl:swapcaps"
>># Or if you just want both to be control, use:
>>#    Option    "XkbOptions"    "ctrl:nocaps"
