Do you have anything from /var/log/messages ?

I notice you mention nvidia graphics card - are you using binary nvidia 
drivers?

P/S: since you did a text based install, and probably want X to start by 
default, you want to edit /etc/inittab, and when you (probably) see 
id:3:initdefault:, you want to make sure that 3 becomes 5. init 5 is 
where X starts automagically
