I have the same problem with my Laptop (MAXDATA ECO 4510 IW) with Intel 945GM.
I tried to connect TV (LCD) via VGA-cable. But:
- Secondary screen in Xorg configuration tool is always disabled when I'm using 
'intel' driver
- when I changed to i810 driver and restarted X, system freezes on "running 
local scripts" and I'm not able to do anything, must switch back to backup 
xorg.conf file (with 'intel' driver) (and  btw. I prefer intel driver, because 
it sees my native screen resolution 1280x800 by default, without any hacks, 
which were needed in i810)
- the Fn-F4 (key combination for changing screens on my laptop) does not work 
at all: nothing happens when I press it
So I'm stuck at this moment and not able to connect to external TV. I have no 
other "standards" monitor or projector to test it.

Sebastian - why can I do it with intel driver? Is it a problem of the
driver? Will it be fixed soon?
