Nope, not using X. Here is basically what happens. I insert the required
modules for the TV out. If I have no fb modules inserted for the regular
video card of the system (I ordinarily use vesafb for my console), the
console moves over to the TV, however, the cursor is the only thing
visible. That's alright, I suppose, though it doesn't make sense that no
text will show up (at least I don't think it does, according to the answer
from Kevin).
I think he missed the point. You should be able to get a normal console
on the framebuffer device, if not then something is broken or misconfigured.
Also, I think I read that you need vesafb in your kernel for ivtv-fb to
work properly... is that the case? If so then you will probably have to
have it set to come up in 720x480... erm, or maybe not, I don't think
that is a valid vesafb resolution.

pygame.error: No video mode large enough for 720x480
... and it's not 720x480 that's the problem either... I tried a fair
amount smaller and was never able to get it to go past here... However, as
you can see:
ivtv-fb: mode is 720x480x32, linelength=2880
...the only other thing in 'dmesg' that seems interesting to me is:
ivtv-fb: ivtvfb_set_var
ivtvfb does not support changing the video mode
...what is attempting to change the video mode and why should it do so?
It's already set to 720x480 -- does it take issue with the bitdepth
possibly?
That is a good thing to check out, switching bit depth is like changing
resolution which vesafb and ivtv-fb do not support.
I with I could help more!
