Enabling TV-out (s-video)

Solved the probelm:
found it in the following link:

Ooo, i always like to keep a dual-boot option, just in case, as it takes a ridiculous amount of effort to reinstall. I tend to cramp it up a bit but if i need it it's available. A legit Xp (or at least one that thinks it's legit) is not so bad nowadays ;)

well, back here.
it doesn't work.

did a bit more research before posting here again,

found out intel driver is installed,
but connection is not identified. here's a peek to xrandr output, while s-video is connected to it:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1024 x 1024
VGA disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
LVDS connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 304mm x 228mm
   1024x768 60.0*+ 85.0 75.0 70.1 60.0*
   832x624 74.6
   800x600 85.1 72.2 75.0 60.3 56.2
   640x480 85.0 72.8 75.0 59.9
   720x400 85.0
   640x400 85.1
   640x350 85.1
TMDS disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
notice TDMS reports to be disconnected although cable's connected and TV is ON
hardware's fine because it works when booting from XP

thanks!
