Can you try disabling the framebuffer?  Like "vga=none" option as the kernel
parameter.

It's Core2 Duo right?  Has anyone checked i965 chipset with X?  It could be
some trouble with not detecting the correct video chipset.  I believe you can
access the CLI.  What does 'lspci -vv' say?

BTW, is it the latest version of PCLinuxOS?

/dev/agpgart not found, means it is having trouble allocating video ram.  One
possible trouble could be X was instructed to display using kernel framebuffer.
 I'm sorry, I don't currently have an access to my Linux box, but you can read
xorg.conf(5) and disable display of X through kernel framebuffer.

I remember once installing IT at School GNU/Linux (forgot the version), and in 
the
end it asked me (after detecting X and all), whether to enable display through
kernel framebuffer.  I consented, and that caused me a 3-day of
trouble-shooting

Try and run memcheck86 -- just to see that your RAM is ok.

I guess that might be the problem.. not sure though.

No worries,
