Package: upgrade-reports After upgrading from lenny to squeeze, X-Windows didn't start anymore. The error was "No screens found." I solved this issue by some little changes in xorg.conf. But I don't see why my changes should be relevant. xorg.conf is the new config xorg.conf.20100123 is the config from lenny.
