I can't answer to all questions, but ; about Xmono

I think you should comment out 'vga256' related stuff and just
leave 'vga2' stuff; I used to run Xmono long time ago, and
I was getting the same errors.
....
....

#
# Next the mono driver
#
vga2

  Virtual 800 600

  ViewPort 0 0

  Modes "640x480"
# Modes "800x600" "640x480"
..
this is the part you need. comment out clocks and vga256 stuff.
OK.

about swap space problem;

you have to allocate swap space by doing;

$ dd if=/dev/hda[..] of=/swap_file_name bs=1024 count=4096

you create a swap file which has 4096 block with block size 1024
(makes 4M swap space )
(hda[..] is the place you want to put swap space)

then do
$ mkswap /swap_file_name

in rc.local

put this

/bin/swapon /swap_file_name

hope helps!
