Also try starting it with

startx -- -logverbose 5

that way you get a lot more useful debug output.

BTW if you're trying to get TV-OUT on an nvidia card bear in mind that the
TV-out will only
accept a few built in modes (you'll see them in the log file). For 720x576 I
had to set my output standard to PAL-B...
YMMV

Cheers
