I can't tell you about working tv-outs...although I was wondering about
the ATI Rage Fury that apparently has tv-out. What I can suggest is
looking at this link (found via the Wearable PC HOWTO) discussing TV, how
to make Xwindows talk to a TV, and even circuit diagrams for an adaptor...
basically, this shows a way to make standard vga into a TV output.

www.sput.nl/hardware/tv-x.html
or www.hut.fi/Misc/Electronics/circuits/vga2tv/cindex.html

Possible prebuilt adaptors including:
http://www.datapro.net/CSV-950C.html
www.imagemicrosystems.com/VGA2TV.htm

The main problem is the cost, which is probably highly expensive unless
you want to get out a soldering iron and do it yourself...
