You do not say exactly what your problem is, but ...

I just installed sarge with the beta 4 installer onto a
MSI KM2M motherboard using the VIA KM266 chipset

The resolution was limited to 640x480 until I added this in
XF86Config-4 in the "Device" section:

  Option "UseBIOS" "no"

maybe this is a solution for you too.

I found this fix on the archives of the mailinglist
