So the "tv standard" attribute works under kms, but all standards except ntsc shows only black and white lines scrolling over the screen similar like before the patch for this bugzilla was introduced and even the ntsc is not 100% the screen is a bit shaky and the top of the screen seems interlaced. I can provide some more info if you like.

And the other problem I find was when I tried to disable the LVDS on my laptop in xorg.conf to use only tv as an external monitor by adding this:

Section "Monitor"
  Identifier "LVDS"
  Option "Disable" "true"
EndSection

doesn't matter if i use kms or not, the output on the tv was broken.
