Re: why is debian the only distribution that won't let me run X?

Xfree 4.2 will not work with nvidia FX cards.You'll need the nvidia drivers 
installed.To install those you'll need at least the kernel headers for your 
kernel installed and probably also the source.Don't know the debian way.
Although the PCI ID for your card is strange (0x032c)
What kind of nvidia ist that?
Fx cards look like this (supposedly):

  o GeForce FX 5800 Ultra        0x0301
  o GeForce FX 5800              0x0302
  o GeForce FX 5600 Ultra        0x0311
  o GeForce FX 5600              0x0312
  o GeForce FX 5200 Ultra        0x0321
  o GeForce FX 5200              0x0322
