After reading the link you gave to Bug #89290 I thought I would mention the following:
I have two devices section in xorg.conf:

Section "Device"
    Identifier "nVidia Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 420 Go 32M]"
    Driver "nvidia"
    Option "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier "GeForce4 420 Go 32M TVOut"
    Driver "nvidia"
    Option "TVOutFormat" "SVIDEO"
    Option "TVStandard" "PAL-I"
    Option "ConnectedMonitor" "TV"
EndSection

I had to add "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP" to the main device section as X always failed with a blank laptop screen. I am of course using the other Device section for the TV-Out that is currently failing, but don't know if this addition could have affected things.
