Solved TV in Black and White Problem in Ubuntu 8.04 with Compaq Laptop

?
Finally after a lot of tweakin with the xorg.conf got Full Colour on S-Video Out on my Compaq Presario V3155(3000) AU, with an nVidia GeForce 6150 GPU on Ubuntu 8.04. The notable sections in the xorg.conf are the device section where you have to put the Option's right. You have to choose the right output SVIDEO or COMPOSITE and the TV Format,and in the Monitor section VertRefresh to 50hz also helped.

Please check your TV Manual for the correct VertRefresh Rate.
And the following table for the format

PAL-B	Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Guinea, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia, The Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland
PAL-D	China and North Korea
PAL-G	Denmark, Finland, Germany, Italy, Malaysia, The Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland
PAL-H	Belgium
PAL-I	Hong Kong, Ireland, and United Kingdom
PAL-K1	Guinea
PAL-M	Brazil
PAL-N	France, Paraguay, and Uruguay
PAL-NC	Argentina
NTSC-J	Japan
NTSC-M	Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Haiti, Honduras, Mexico, Panama, Puerto Rico, South Korea, Taiwan, United States of America, and Venezuela
HD480i	480 line interlaced
HD480p	480 line progressive
HD720p	720 line progressive
HD1080i	1080 line interlaced
HD1080p	1080 line rogressive

Here is the whole xorg.conf, I guess you can find out the relevant parts from it, else just comment .. I will help you.
