installing 8.10, let it install proprietary drivers, now xorg has issues

[Guest]

new to linux.. installed kubuntu 8.10, and let it install the restricted repositories
went into the hardware drivers section, and it said it wanted to use proprietary drivers, so I let it. after it was done, it said it needed to reboot, so I rebooted. now when it boots, it goes to the command line login. when i typed startx, it gave me an error saying no devices detected. fatal server error, no screens found. giving up.
I am running a Nforce 750i SLI mainboard with 2 Nvidia 8800GTS graphics cards.
thanks for the help!

i am not kubuntu guru but for now you can start "X" in vesa mode by using vesa config file in /etc/X11

and if the link that you see in the upper post dont work you can find the solution alone by reading

man xorg.conf i wish you luck
