Black and white over svideo usually means you are using a NTSC video
mode to a PAL TV. You will need to manually change it from the default
NTSC to PAL because there is no way to know you want to use PAL over an
analog svideo connection like that. This isn't really the driver's fault
because there is no way to appease everyone, changing the default to
your PAL region would just make it not work for people in other regions.
xrandr --prop
will give you a list of modes supported like this
mode: NTSC_M
supported: NTSC_M NTSC_J NTSC_443 PAL_B
PAL_D PAL_G PAL_H PAL_I
PAL_M PAL_N PAL_NC PAL_60
SECAM_B SECAM_D SECAM_G SECAM_K
SECAM_K1 SECAM_L SECAM_60
xrandr --output TV1 --set mode PAL_D (if PAL_D is what you use) will
change it over. You can add these settings to your xorg.conf so it is
saved over a reboot.
