display port question
If it has two rows of small holes in it, it is a video output for a monitor
not for a TV. Few machines support the composite signal required for a TV, though some offer SVideo and Divx, if you have suitable ports. SVideo looks like an older mouse port, and Divx looks like an older printer port with a rectangular hole amidst the pins. You would need an appropriate cable for these, and a TV capable of accepting these inputs. Good luck.
