With this in mind, any idea why I'd see this in the kernel log?

ivtvfb0 info: Display size: 720x576 (virtual 720x576) @ 32bpp
<snip>
ivtvfb0 warning: Invalid resolution: 720x576

It's definitely a PAL card.

I'm suddenly having a problem with X refusing to start, even when using 
a previously known good config.  Wondering whether the above could be 
connected, given the problem i'm seeing from X:

(EE) IVTV(0): FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO: Invalid argument
(EE) IVTV(0): Mode init failed

Cheers
Steve
