Hang out the flags, break out the champagne, I've fixed it (sort of)! The problem is that the VESA driver no longer works! If I change it to "nv" it works! It isn't that the VESA driver doesn't exist - if that were the case, I know I would get an error telling me so - it just doesn't work. There are still two problems: the USB mouse once again doesn't work (the relevant modules are all still loaded), and I'm still getting an error stating "Can't find file 'pc/uk' for symbols include".
