I don't see how truecrypt can have broken the video card: the display
works fine in windoze and truecrypt has never had access to any of the
partitions that contained linux and the installation of linux came after
truecrypt was used to encrypt the windoze partitions.

I can try to boot with ubuntu rescue over the weekend, stick in a USB
stick & try to pull /var/log/Xorg.0.log off and paste it up here via
another machine but if something has killed the Xorg config (which is
what I assume you mean by "leaving your video card in a broken state")
then it must be something ubuntu did with its failed install or
something I did with my attempts to rescue that failed install.

I'm certainly not about to wipe the truecrypt encrypted windoze
installation that is working fine to reinstall unencrypted windoze and
then go back to trying to install unbuntu encrypted alongside it (which
I can vouch for failing as I've been there previously: the ubuntu
install, with LUKS encryption, refuses to install grub to a partition, I
think that's already been logged as a bug though I can't see it now).
