Your problem seems to be the video card having some sort of different
PCI id than normal. Can you copy the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf from the
live system?

The xorg.conf is attached.
And yes, it looks like a wrong PCI id.

I have booted again the live CD. Then removed the line
BusID           "PCI:0:2:0"
from xorg.conf.

From lspci:
0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 86C326
5598/6326 (rev 0b) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
       Flags: bus master, 66MHz, medium devsel, latency 64
       Memory at e7000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=8M]
       Memory at e7ef0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
       I/O ports at cc00 [size=128]
       Expansion ROM at e7ee0000 [disabled] [size=64K]
       Capabilities: <available only to root

Should it be PCI:0:1:0 at xorg.conf?

After removing this, another error appeared, about Synaptics Touchpad.
Removed all the synaptics section. Another error, now about the mouse.
Since my mouse is serial and not PS2, I have changed the "Configured
Mouse" to use /dev/ttyS0 and also changed the protocol.
After there changes, X was able to work correctly.

So, it looks that vesa works for me. The problem is on xorg.conf, with:
- detecting the wrong PCI ID
- synaptics
- ps/2 mouse

Thank you!

Nelson
