The problem is that X -configure and xf86cfg are both in pretty bad shape in stock 4.0.2.
For the time being, it is better to use the debconf interface to X server
configuration that I wrote.
[I have begun forwarding private mails I receive to debian-user, because it
is poor practice to ask a package maintainer directly for help.]

Subject: XFree4.0.2 upgrade problem
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I don't know that this merits a "bug report" per se.
But.
I upgraded from 'stable' to 'testing' last night and X didn't fly.
'X -configure' & 'xf86cfg' both locked up the PC
'xf86configure' I was able to get through.
I believe that the problem is in the declaration of the default
XF86Config-4 file where the video card was picked up as 'apm'.
Is there something more that I can do to provide information on
this problem?
I don't know if this is a Debian or an XFree problem
BTW - I got it working great after I did the text based
configuration.
