Doesn't the nvidia driver supports KMS? Because if it does, then you SHOULD NOT pass any VGA mode at all... that's one of th enice things on KMS.
The proprietary driver does not support KMS. Nouveau does, however. Since Nouveau (incl. Nouveau 3D) became pretty good in recent months, I wouldn't bother keeping the proprietary driver as top priority. It should be able to install but that's it. (IMHO) Nouveau has come a bloody long way. I have had to fix Plymouth splashes before, and its not that hard to do... just a matter of adding a VGA mode in Grub. We wil hear alot of complaints about peoples splashes breaking after installing NVidia, so we just need to make sure we are ready to point them to correct info. Also, Plymouth defaults to an Ascii splash if it can't go VGA...
