update:
On my installation, with the latest packages,

1. with kernel 2.6.32-18-generic, the boot still freezes after fsck message

2. with kernel 2.6.31-19-generic, I get gdm and gnome desktop at low resolution (800x600) and only other mode shown by xrandr was 640x480.
I manually added a monitor section to provide the horizontal and vertical sync (from values I got off the net) and configured a modeline for 1280x1024. (using cvt)
with this:
  * Using the custom xorg.conf, now xrandr (also the "monitors" menu item under system->preferences->monitors) shows a lot more mode options and I have configured it to use 1280x1024.
  * Even after the custom xorg.conf, kernel 2.6.32-18-generic, still freezes.
  * Plymouth splash is not seen at boot or shutdown/restart.
