For me, I was not able to get my component out work properly.  I have
the 6200 with a component out dangle.  I connect component out directly
to my HDTv component In.  When X starts, I get a blue tint on everything
on the screen.  A quick search on NVNews forum indicate that it could be
a bios problem with my card.  Seems like the card is outputing s-video
signal out to component out even tho the xorg has the line Option
"TVOutFormat" "COMPONENT" and option "TVStandard" "HD720P"
