nvidia pal-b tv out success

Ive just spent some time playing around with my X config trying to get
tv out to with with a Nvidia Geforce4 mx420. It seems most the examples
on the net are for NTSC, and none of the fewer PAL examples I found
worked for me. Since I know this will end up on google, maybe it'll help
someone.

These are the magic lines for XF86Config (XFree 4.2.1-21 from redhat 8,
with nvidias drivers 1.0.4496) for PAL-B in Australia! Woohoo! Full
screen openGL support! That iris 3d xmms plugin isnt bad at all! :)
