There is no way to do tv-out works in my laptop. This model come with Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller ... and just a black screen appear on TV. I am using F10 with gnome.
I have the same laptop and as soon as I can find a cable I will try connecting to TV out.
Meanwhile try lowering the resolution of the laptop first - The TV might not be able to handle high resolution.
