Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel

It seems that the Tv Out doesn't work with intel-945 in the MacBook
(mine is second generation, but it should be the same for others gen).

We have to use an adapter mini-DVI->S-Video but the only things I have on my tv 
is "crapy"... i can just see something move when I move a window for instance. 
It looks like the refresh rate is completely bad... 
I had to put Option "MonitorLayout" "CRT,LFP" in xorg.conf in order to see 
something on the tv (with "TV" replacing CRT, i got a black tv).
I tried with the tv plugged at boot time, nothing change... and I tried several 
way of configure Xorg too...


If it can helps you, apple say that on its web site : 
---------------------------------------------------------------
The cable detect function on pin 25 is implemented by connecting pin 25 to +5V 
in the adapters. The computer detects which adapter is present by reading its 
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) via DDC. The EDID for video is in 
the adapter; the EDID for VGA and DVI is in the display.
