yeah, that's what my install did once I got the X Server configured
for tv out. if the tv isn't right but the X Server doesn't crash, the
easiest thing is to telnet into the box to have a command prompt and
see what's going on. Do you have both the tv and monitor connected?
Do you get funky colors on the tv screen before the monitor goes blank?
