i have not personally done this yet, but i need to... you'll need to emerge nvtv first.

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "tv"
HorizSync 30-50
VertRefresh 60
Option "DPMS"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Geforce 2 DDR"
Option "TVStandard" "PAL-B"
Option "ConnectedMonitor" "TV"
Option "TVOutFormat" "SVideo"
Monitor "tv"
DefaultDepth "24"

<snip>

This is the relevant part of my x config (using svideo), I've also put some normal resolutions beneath this (dont know if it matters) and use nvtv to switch resolutions and size

All this from nvidia's own docs and sample-configs (so it cant be hard to find)
