Raven:
Yes the log file would be good. Could you also upload the output of:
sudo dmidecode
?

Just for reference here's what the NVIDIA binary driver readme has to say about the problem:
"some video BIOSes contain incorrect information about what display devices may be connected, or what i2c port should be used for detection. These errors can cause long delays in starting X. If you are experiencing such delays, you may be able to avoid this by telling the NVIDIA driver to ignore display devices which you know are not connected."
