I've tested the Karmic Alpha 2 Live CD and the white problem is now a black problem. After the S-Video cable attached to my laptop, configured the position of the 2 properly detected monitors in gnome-display-properties, updated automatically the xorg.conf with the respective virtual resolution and , finally, logout and login, the two displays (laptop and TV) were black. It's just possible to see the mouse arrow moving and a thin (1 pixel wide) line of the desktop in the left side of the laptop screen, all the rest of the desktop (laptop and TV) was black.

If the option is "mirror" it works, the laptop changes to 1024x768, like the TV, and it seems the 3D effects are working. I couldn't test the video because there are no VLC in the repos.
