After searching alot on google and trying everything i bought an NVIDIA card and that works perfectly

ATI has apparently refused to give out specs for the TV output for fear that we'll get around Macrovision and they'll lose their license or something. There are apparently some TV output drivers in the GATOS source tree, but I haven't checked their quality (and somehow I doubt they would be sufficient in their current state).

The Gatos project does not support this adapter
