I imaging that most of the current TV-Out video cards will work with X if you set X to the correct resolution and refresh - color depth should have little to with it. I know that NTSC is 60Hz, so [EMAIL PROTECTED] might work, but I suspect that you may need to find exact horizontal and vertical refresh rates. Also, I have seen TV-Out running at 800x600 on a windows machine, so I know that it can be done (I don't know if it is, in reality, just a trick, or if it really is 800x600).
One question, though - have you seen this card work under windows? I have never seen one of these that was good for anything other than playing video based games like X-Files and Gabriel Knight - which are windows games.
