Your VGA card can probably generate that signal itself. You'll only
need an adapter for having the correct plugs. See

In short: Besides proper frequencies, you need interlacing.

I just spoke to someone from Audio Authority which is the company that
makes the device I linked to:

The guy there says it won't work because a computer outputs a
non-interlaced signal and a standard TV uses interlaced.  Basically,
exactly what you said.  From your link, it looks like an interlaced
signal can be specifiec in xorg.conf which should solve that problem.
Is that right?
