xserver-xfree86 is the xserver for xfree v4. Before that there were xserver-<vidcard> packages. According to a web search, you have a NeoMagic 128ZV+ vid card. Looking through a quick google search I could see no sign of other people having problems. Perhaps you should try loading into X without KDE (just use a window manager). If X works then you can narrow down the search. If you still have problems the problems lie in X, not KDE.
