Honk! (goes the buzzer)

Wrong video card settings, what cards it for ? was it setup with the right
screensizes? did u update the video card server (eg. XFree86-Svga) ?

that error is basically telling you that Xwindows isn't capable starting up
with any of the screen resolutions you have set it up with. Drop it down a
few notches and/or try and dload the latest server for your video card.

Cheers
