Hi,

First of all, please install nvidia-legacy-340xx-driver rather than the
xserver package. This is the top level meta package and it will ensure all
dependences are pulled in.

Also please attach the full log.

Questions:
- what is your Nvidia card (lspci verbose output please)?
- are you on stable, testing or unstable?
- if I understand correctly you have an amd64 installation. Did you add
i368 via dpkg --add-architecture?
- did you ever have non-legacy-340xx packages installed?
- are you installing from a tty or is yours a laptop with an optimus system?

Kind regards,
Luca Boccassi
