I hope this is not a stupid question, but is there any chance the
nvidia xorg.conf you're using is to drive TV only? Have you tried
hooking up the S-video and seeing if it works?
If you're not planning on going out to tv just yet, you might as well
keep your working xorg until you get the system configured and
running. Editing the xorg.conf file is not that hard as long as you
follow directions, but it's also possible to fry your hardware if you
make mistakes in modelines.
