Hi, :-)

I've tried SuSE Linux and it worked perfect for me, but a friend toldme
some great things about Debian, so I wanted to try it out...

The whole FTP-install went perfect.

[..MAJOR SNIP..]

In the future, kindly upload your config files to a website somewhere.

You errors are as a result of your inability to setup X11 correctly.
Unlike SuSE this is *not* done at compile time. Do you even have a window
manager installed? In either case:

dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86

assuming you have the relevant information (from "lspci") etc should see
you through.

Kindly,
