+That may be the problem.  For many ATI cards (yes, I know you're 
+nvidia), the install sets an ATI driver (free or proprietary) which will 
+not work without nonfree firmware, resulting in exactly what you see.  
+These days, for a cauldron install, I have to specifically select "vesa" 
+during install, and only switch it to the actual driver after firmware 
+has been installed.
+
+You need to figure out what driver is being set by the install, and what 
+its requirements are.  Worst case, redo the install and in Summary 
+choose Graphical and see what's selected by default.  Then select 
+"Xorg::vesa", and go with that until this has been cleared up.  Googling 
+a combination of your card model and the driver name will probably help.
