I've never gone wrong with having just vesa support under Device Drivers >
Graphics Support. I tried using one of the hardware accelerated ones (I
think I had a nVidia) and it failed horribly. I stay in X 99% of the time
anyways, so I don't really see the point of having anithing else but vesa.

Hope this helps,
