This subject seems familiar. (I have a PS2 Linux kit)  IIRC it
is possible to actually use YDL on your SDTV.  You just have to
set it up.  The resolution will be an issue but not as much as
you might think. I run my PS2 Linux kit on SDTV all the time
(640x448).  Some things, like plain console/term applications
aren't much affected at all.  Things with lots of
toolbars/icons/widgets are more affected, Abiword being an
example.

If all you need is command prompt access, just ssh (or telnet)
in from whatever terminal application you have on the laptop.  I
use Cygwin on Windows for the X server when I want to use
X-forwarding, which for me is simply running from the Cygwin
prompt:

xinit

ssh -Y -1 192.168.1.100

Then running my window manager when I'm logged in.
