OK, I think I found the ultimate workaround. :)

If you hate running randr all the time, as much as I do, you can try
this:

1.- Make sure your 'Section "Device"' contains this:
    Driver          "intel"
2.- Add the following section:
    Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "TV"
        Option          "TV Format"                     "PAL"
    EndSection

That's it. Every time you turn your computer on, you'll see everything
with color on your TV.

See the attachment for a sample xorg.conf file.

HTH.
