With the older minis, there was an adapter you could get that allowed the 
mini's dvi port to connect to a regular TV. If this adapter was connected, the 
mini would work fine. That doesn't work on the newer minis though. Depending on 
what mini you have, it probably has a mini display port, and either a mini dvi 
port or HDMI port. With these, the only way I have found to make this work is 
to connect a monitor of some kind, I don't think just the cable is sufficient, 
I could be wrong there though.
