But with the NIC plugged in X org reads Device "VESA Framebuffer" in the Screen section it goes looking for a Vesa Frambuffer driver to talk to a Vesa bios instead of going back to the reference in the Graphics section and finding the NVidia driver to talk a Nvidia bios.
The obvios thing then seems to be to change the Identifier=Vesa Framebuffer and Device=Vesa Framebuffer to Id=GForce or and Device=GForce and see what happens.
You may just get a differently worded answer but that should still tell us something.

I think it just means that it found the card. That's all. You could nonetheless try it. However, I'd suggest making a careful backup of the configuration files. (and don't just call it .bak. the software will overwrite it next time you try to configure anything with a configuration program.)
