Yup. I ended up buying a cheapy nVidia card just for TV-out on my MythTV
box.
I could get TV out working with ATI, but for some reason no videos would
appear on the TV, only on my monitor. On the TV I'd just get a black box.

I found that booting with my cheapy nVidia card I had TV out
immediately, but only when only the TV was connected. When a monitor is
connected also then nvidia-settings and some xorg.conf config comes to
the rescue.
