gft is just a modeline generator that is included with the XFree86 (not
sure if it is included in all versions, however).  You can find other
programs that do the same thing (videogen, for example).

I noticed in your first message in the log file that there was a warning
for MTRR support.  Check to see if your config file (/boot/Config-xx in
debain) has CONFIG_MTRR=y.  If it doesn't, try compiling that into the
kernel.  It might make a difference.
