Re: help with nvidia and BusID

I'm trying to run the nvidia proprietary driver for a PCI video card.  I
also have an onboard video card.  I think xorg.conf needs to specify the
BusID in the device section like this:

Section "Device"
    Identifier     "nVidia FX 5200"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    BusID          "PCI:00:06.0"
EndSection

lspci shows:

00:06.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX
5200] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Is this correct? 
Second question:  what if I want to use the tv-out connection instead of the DVI?  How do I specify that?



First question: I have

Section "Device"
        Option      "AllowGLXWithComposite"     "On"
        Option      "RenderAccel"               "True"
        Option      "RandRRotation"             "1"
        Option      "NvAGP"                     "0"
        Option      "ConnectToAcpid"            "off"
        Identifier  "nvidia0"
        Driver      "nvidia"
        VendorName  "NVidia"
        BoardName   "GeForce 6200 AGP"
        BusID       "PCI:4:0:0"
EndSection

and lspci gives:
04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G98 [GeForce 8400 GS] (rev a1)
