Hello,
which OSS version were you running exactly ? 10.x or 11.x ?

About the console video mode, I think the "vga" option and framebuffer 
stuff are obsoleted by the "KMS" feature.
KMS is supposed to switch your console to the best resolution available.
If your computer does not support it, I think you can disable it by 
adding the "nomodeset" kernel parameter in grub.conf . If you do so, the 
"vga=" parameter should work again.

As you seem to already know, the KDM automatic startup should be enabled 
if you use the correct runlevel.
In Fedora, in order to have Trinity's kdm started automatically in 
runlevel 5, you must add a variable in a config file.

In file (it does not exist by default):
   /etc/sysconfig/desktop
Add the following line (without spaces):
   DISPLAYMANAGER=/opt/trinity/bin/kdm
Then restart the service with command:
   service dm restart

There must be a corresponding setting in Debian but I do not know it.
