Not specifically, but remember that your console video out is very
different from your X-Windows video out. One is done by your hardware
alone, the other is done by the graphics driver and controlled with the
xorg.conf. Check there to make sure you are using NTSC or to make other
changes that affect the X-Windows driver.
