  Forget messing with modelines and the like. The nvidia driver works it 
out - translating an X modeline into the appropiate TV standard.

         Driver      "nvidia"
         VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
         BoardName   "NVIDIA GeForce 6600"
         Option      "ConnectedMonitor" "TV"
         Option      "TVStandard" "PAL-I"
         Option      "TVOverScan" "0.5"
         Option      "TVOutFormat" "composite"

  Works for me.

  My monitor section is actually for the XVGA screen I used to set the 
machine up orginally and not the TV set.

  When the output is a TV either the driver or the hardware takes care 
of the TV timings, I dunno which - it just works... :-)
