The only change I made was a lower default resolution, and saved it as
xorg.conf.tv

Then I have the following alias in ~/.bashrc:
alias startxtv="startx -- -config xorg.conf.tv"

So when I want to connect to tv I simply type
startxtv

Before switching to tv I have to type (adding this info to xorg.conf
doesn't work for me)
atitvout pal

Then, to switch to tv:
atitvout -f t

To switch back to laptop:
atitvout -f l

Cheers, Leon.
