We see... <snip from log> ==) VGA(0): videoRam: 256 kBytes. ... (II) VGA(0): Not using default mode "640x350" (insufficient memory for mode) (II) VGA(0): Not using default mode "640x400" (insufficient memory for mode) <onward and onward through the modes> So X thinks your video card has only 256K of RAM - note that's a "K", not an "M". No remotely standard video mode can squash its data into 256K. Not sure why debconf got the memory so wrong. You could try running the configuration program again as before - this time, be sure to 1) select the appropriate card - "GeForce" or "nvidia" or similar and 2) specify the video memory - you may need to give this in KB, i.e. 64MB = 64 x 1024K = 65536K. Alternatively, you could edit XF86Config-4 by hand. Change the "driver" line in the "Device" section to "vesa" or maybe "nv" and add a line in the same section that says VideoRam 65536 Hope that helps...
