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.
