I'm not sure what you do mean by kdm-startup in recovery mode. Recovery-mode for me does mean sulogin, and this causes that not everything gets loaded to enable sane kdm-login.

Does kernel-2.6.17-7-generic still boot into sane state?

Do you have vesafb (or another fb) for console enabled? If so, try to boot without it and tell me what is happening.
