I actually got tvout working on a Ti4200 with 6629
in my XF86Config I commented out some lines
Option "TwinView"
# Option "ConnectedMonitor" "CRT, TV"
# Option "TwinViewOrientation" "Clone"
Option "SecondMonitorHorizSync" "30-50"
Option "SecondMonitorVertRefresh" "60"
Option "MetaModes" "1600x1200, 640x480 +100+100"
Option "TVStandard" "PAL-B"
Option "TVOutFormat" "COMPOSITE"

and all of a sudden I get tvout and my crt working at the same time again (before either both would go black or the CRT would and console would disappear and the machine freeze hard requiring a hardboot), so odd :P
Hope this helps someone else, I be happy again, nvidia dudes, why would this work with these lines commented out?
