AFAIK ateam's suggestion about modules is a non-issue. Your modules seem to be loading okay.

I would suggest finding where the problem is first. Is the problem your Debain system? That is, is the system stable without running X? Can you compile a kernel without locking up for example?

Is it the Desktop Environment or Window Manager? GNOME in this case. Install a very minimal window manager like twm (or fvwm2) and test your X configuration with that.

Then if that does work, try increasing the logging from X, 'startx -- -logverbose 5'.

Hope that helps.
