[coreboot] TV-Out Plan - need suggestions

Erm, is the tv-out part of the onboard video, or is it a separate chip? I
thought it was a separate chip, so it wouldn't go in with the i830 stuff (in
case someone else has tv out with another board and a different chip). But
if it's onboard, just ignore me.
